These potatoes are so creamy! I received the recipe from a friend at work. Cooking time includes both boiling and baking. Add 30 minutes standing time, if you refrigerate before baking.

These were very good. I would have rated them as excellent, but they needed a lot more liquid than the recipe called for. They were slightly dry without it and I thought the taste of the sour cream was a bit overpowering. Overall, very easy for make-ahead, however.

    This is my 25 year old daughter's favorite mashed potato recipe. She hounds me till I make it for her. Since today is her birthday I will be (of course) whipping up a batch, in her honor. Thank you for Her! For such a wonderful recipe, it is also a breeze during the holidays as I do make it "ahead of time" which really does free up time during the hectic rush of the holiday panic!!!!!

    A wonderful recipe. To keep help warm up prepared potatoes, place in crockpot and set on low to keep warm or place on high to heat up quickly. A nice way to keep potatoes warm.

    Wow these potatoes were so creamy.I did cut back on the cream cheese but they were still great. I used lite cream cheese and fat free sour cream. A great make ahead dish. Thanks Kim
