Ingredients:   
Large Baking Potatoes-4 peeled. 
Butter-6 tablespoons softened.. 
Kosher Salt-2 teaspoons. 
White Pepper- 1/2 teaspoon. 
Hot Milk or Cream- 1/2 cup.                      

Instructions.  Peel and boil potatoes until softened about 1 hour.  Drain.  Place in a mixing bowl the butter, salt, white pepper and hot potatoes.  Mix until the desired consistency is obtained.  At deliciouscookies.com we prefer our mashed potatoes  creamy, but you may like them slightly lumpy.  As you like.  Continue mashing or mixing while incorporating the warm milk into the mixture.  We use an electric Kitchen Aide mixer and pour the milk into the potato mixture in a slow steady stream.  Mix until all the milk is incorporated.  Serve immediately or place in a buttered casserole dish covered. Keep warm in the oven.
