Terrific recipe. Made it day ahead for both Thanksgiving and Christmas and it was great. Recipe said, and reviewers concurred, that key to good taste was to wait until the day of serving to add the butter. But even a day after that with butter it still tasted good. I used unsalted butter because I like to add my own salt; I find the sweetness of unsalted butter with the freshness of my own added salt makes a good contrast.

Love these! For some extra flavor, gently heat the half and half with a garlic clove or two before mixing with the potatoes. I have also used part buttermilk and half and half. These also freeze quite well - they are watery once thawed, but the moisture is absorbed well and they fluff right back up when heated. Thanks!

This is the way to "de-stress" during cooking a Thanksgiving meal! Thanks for sharing.

Used yukon gold potatoes. Followed other reveiwers suggestions, made the night before, put in the crockpot on low in the morning with a stick of butter on top- turned on warm after 3 hours. Came out great, whole family enjoyed.

This is a great recipe and makes mashed potatoes a quick side if made ahead. For extra flavor, add roasted garlic!

I made these for Thanksgiving. They were everything I expected - easy and sinful.

This was great, thank you! And a HUGE thanks to whoever suggested keeping the taters whole and peeling them after they cook...SO much easier and less time consuming!
