Directions
Kittencal’s Make-Ahead Mashed Potatoes, Preparing this ahead will save you tons of time in the kitchen, you may make them up to 3 days in advance, use only russet potatoes for this reds will not work the same, you may also add in 1/2 cup half and half cream or milk if desired, also the cheddar cheese is only optional if I am serving it to guests at my holiday table I most always omit and sprinkle a light dusting of paprika on top, or you may add it into the potato mixture if desired, and if you are serving a large crowd you may want to double and bake and serve in two pans ———- don’t wait to make this for the holidays, these are that good I think you will find yourself making them all the time!, Great recipe, been making it for years I am surprised at how few reviews it has Definitely a winner , We made these WEEKS in advance while tripling the recipe We froze them in quart containers and just defrosted for 3 days in the fridge and popped the taters out into a crock pot lined with a crock pot liner (with a tablespoon or two of water between the liner and the crock pot) Once they got hot, they seemed a little ‘grainy’ but a little added warm milk and melted butter incorporated into it very well with a few good stirs They were wonderful Make extra because they’ll be the first to go Just delicious Nice to know you don’t have to be mashing potatoes at the last minute for your Thanksgiving feast
