RECIPE BACKSTORY
This is one of my own recipes, with no exact measurements. I tweak it all the time. You pretty much can't go wrong with this, just make it as you desire. We like ours really creamy, so I might add more milk and really whip them in my mixer. This makes a lot of mashed potatoes too, so you can use less amount of potatoes if you like.
