I absolutly love this recipe "as is" and have made it many times. However if you want to take it up a notch heres something else you can try. I added chicken boulion and about 3-4 whole cloves of garlic.(No need to chop them up you'll mash them at the end) While the potatoes are boiling put about 4 peices of bacon in the oven. ( I cook them at 375f for about 10 minutes or so) When your bacon is done place it in a food processor and pulse until bacon is evenly chopped. Set aside. When the potatoes are done drain and add the cream cheese butter and sour cream. Another tip is to melt those 3 ingredients in a pan first before adding to the potatoes. Once mashed pour the potatoes into a baking dish add sprinkle chopped green onions on top, grated cheese, and finally the chopped bacon. You can set aside in the fridge and heat later-or-throw them in the oven until the cheese is melted. Again these potatoes are great as is or if you choos to spice them up a bit this is a great way to do it. Enjoy!!

I loathe any kind of warmed up potatoes, so I was very reluctant to try this recipe. Still, I needed something extra convenient for times when I am unable to stand for long, so I eventually tried this. WOW!! Now I always have mashed potatoes in the fridge, just ready to go, and find they are totally delicious. sometimes I chuck a handful of grated Cheddar cheese on top before re-heating them, but usually I prefer them as is!

I have always been known for my mashed potatoes, so my standards are very high. I absolutely love this recipe! Now I can enjoy my company instead of standing in the kitchen cooking. The recipe is great as is but as you make it more you wind up putting your own spin on it. I like to put crumbled bacon, cheddar, and green onions on top for a great pot luck take along. I will make this one for years to come and have passed it on to many people. Great, great, recipe. Thanks a million.

I have been making this recipe for 2 years and its always perfect. The only thing I change is that I use 1/4 cup chives and some garlic powder. I also cook potatoes in chicken broth which gives it a little more flavor. Thanks for a great helper at Thanksgiving!

Great easy recipe. I piped these into mounts along side of our steak and then decorated the potatoes and plate with more fresh parsley. Pretty and always good.

This worked beautifully even tho I only used half of the cream cheese. It was so nice to make this dish in the morning and just pop it into the oven in the evening. Thanks Carter!

These were good. I forgot about the paprika so it didn't get added. I also used fresh chives because that was what was ready for me. I will definately make this again. Thanks for something new.

I halved the recipe and added some milk to make them fluffier. Also added some minced garlic. Everyone in my family loved them! Will definitely be making these again.

This is a great recipe! To make it better I use 8oz of cream cheese, and approx 1/3 cup of chopped onion in place of the chives. Sprinkle a little garlic and onion powder and it tastes great! Also, it says to cook for 30 minutes, however, after being refrigerated, it almost always takes 45-1 hour to get heated throughout when making a full baking dish. Tastes best when allowed to sit in the refrigerater for 24 hours before cooking.

These do stay moist, you wouldn't know they were made ahead. Can add garlic salt or roasted garlic.

This is a fantastic dish. It is now a permanent staple at holiday meals for us. The only problem we have had with this recipe is that it has killed three mixers, but that is because we have to fix a large batch because we have a large family. Don't let that stop you from making this.

These are great. The only change I make is adding a whole head of roasted garlic. Everyone in the family loves these, and I am not even a mashed potato fan.
