Ingredients

  • 5 pounds russet potato or Yukon Gold potato
  • 3/4 cup butter divided, cut into small cubes
  • 3 cups water
  • 1 teaspoon seasoned salt (I use the Lawry's brand)
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 package (8 ounces) cream cheese softened
  • 3 to 4 Tablespoons milk

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Peel and then cut potatoes into 1-inch pieces. Rinse cut potato pieces in cold water.
  2. Grease a large (6 to 8 quart) crock pot with non-stick cooking spray. Place the cut potatoes into the crock pot. Season with the salt and pepper. Pour in the 3 cups water, and then dot the tops of potatoes with only 1/4 cup of the butter.
  3. Turn crock pot on high. Cover with lid and cook potatoes for at least 4 to 5 hours. Potatoes are ready when they are fork tender.
  4. Carefully, drain the hot water from crock pot, keeping the cooked potatoes inside. (Or you can drain in a colander and then put potatoes back in the crock pot).Mash potatoes with a potato masher until smooth. You can also use an electric hand-mixer.Add the remaining butter, cream cheese and milk. (add milk depending on how thin or thick you like your mashed potatoes)
  5. Continue to mash until there are no lumps left, and all the butter and cream cheese is combined. Season potatoes with more salt and pepper, if desired. Serve and enjoy!
