i followed the recipe, and these turned out very thick and kinda tasteless. I added some regular milk and more butter and they turned out pretty good. next time i would do half heavy cream and half milk, thanx for the recipe.

tastes like sticky mashed potatoes.. I'm sure I could have fixed the stickiness, but the flavor was really bland.. not rich or impressive.. just white mashed potatoes. Husband wasn't a fan. "Next time, can I just make the mashed potatoes?"-his exact words.

The trick to avoid the "sticky" consistency is to drain potatoes well let sit a few minutes to dry some as the butter melts. Then add the cream a little at a time and mash or whip with a hand mixer till fluffy. No more gooey mashed potatoes.

I just want to say this is a great recipe. The only thing I did was to put some cheddar cheese in them. The whole family loved them. I had to double the amount too. No left over at my house.

YUM! These were EASY... and delicious! Everyone commented several times on how great these mashed potatoes were! I did use the suggestion by another reviewer and warmed (not melted) the butter and warmed the heavy cream. I haved used this method with sausage gravy as well and it really does make a difference. Thank you for sharing this wonderful recipe... oh I also added some fresh garlic to the potatoes and it was very good!

I normally make mashed potatoes with milk, butter, salt and pepper, and this pretty much tasted exactly the same, but with more fat. I almost want to say it had less flavor, but that doesn't make much sense.

These were fantastic mashed potatoes! They made a great presentation on my dinner table. I topped with more butter and chives, and almost everyone asked for seconds! Thanks for the recipe.

I use this same recipe for holidays, only I just use the butter to dot the finished dish and instead add two heaping tablespoons of mayonaise to give it more flavor because most people will add more butter anyway without tasting it. So why waste the butter especially on a holiday when it's needed more at the table and for other dishes.
