Description

Ingredients

• 5 large red potatoes
• 2 Tbsp. butter
• ¼ cup milk
• ¼ cup half and half
• 1 cup smoked gouda cheese, shredded
• salt and plenty of fresh ground pepper, to taste
• extra butter (optional) for garnish

Directions

• Roughly chop potatoes and place them in a medium-sized pot. Cover potatoes with cold water and bring to a boil. Cook for an additional 10-15 minutes or until potatoes are easily pierced with a fork.
• Drain potatoes and return them to the pot.
• Add butter, milk, and half-and-half to potatoes and let the butter melt for a minute. Then mash with a potato masher until they are relatively lump-free (I actually like a few lumps in my potatoes, but make them as smooth as you like!)
• Add shredded smoked gouda cheese, salt and fresh ground pepper. Stir until cheese has melted.
• Transfer hot smoked gouda mashed potatoes to a large baking dish and top with a pat of butter and a few more turns of fresh ground black pepper. Serve immediately.
