Sour Cream Mashed Potatoes

Posted by Lori:
I like the flavor of sour cream in recipes, so yesterday I decided to add some to our mashed potatoes. Because two of our children don't like sour cream, I didn't tell them until AFTER dinner.

Sour Cream Mashed Potatoes
6 large potatoes, peeled and cubed
1/2 cup (1 stick) butter
1/2 cup sour cream
1 cup milk
1 1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper

Place cubed potatoes in large pot. Cover with water and cook on medium-high heat until potatoes are tender. Drain off water. In same pot or in large mixing bowl, beat potatoes until no large chunks remain. Add remaining ingredients and beat until smooth and creamy. Serve immediately or place in crock pot to keep warm. Potatoes can also be covered with plastic wrap, placed in the refrigerator, and reheated later on with meal.

The kids kept eating and eating the potatoes, then I told them my little secret! The two non-sour-cream-likers were kind of surprised, but agreed that it made the potatoes extra creamy and flavorful. We all liked the added ingredient, actually.
