I am obsessed with making creamy mashed potatoes. Its become one of my jobs to make these creamy, buttery mashed potatoes for the Holidays. My family is expecting from their culinary blogger great mashed potatoes and they will tell me if not up to par. This is family approved.
Please call the fabulous police!!! Bacon, sour cream, cheddar cheese, and heavy cream need I say more? This is not part of a daily well-balanced breakfast unless its the day after Thanksgiving LOL. Here are step-by-step instructions on how to make this.
