Shopping List:
1.5-2 lbs Red Potatoes (You can also use any potatoes you like)
1/2 stick of butter (more if desired)
150g Boursin Garlic & Herbs Cheese
2 quarts Chicken Stock
1/2 cup Heavy Cream
1 cup Whole Milk
1-2 tsp garlic paste
salt, pepper, onion powder
Directions:
Clean and dry your potatoes and then peel them. (You can leave some skin on for additional flavor and texture if desired). Cut into halves or quarters depending on size - the goal is to ensure all potato pieces are similar in size so that they cook at the same rate. Add to a pot with 1.5-2 quarts of chicken stock (enough to cover the potatoes by an inch) Boil for 8-12 minutes or until fork tender. Warm your butter, milk, and cream mixture together at a gentle simmer. Once the potatoes are tender, strain and add back to your pot. Use your potato masher to begin mashing and then add in the Boursin Cheese. Slowly incorporate your butter and cream mixture until the potatoes reach the consistency you want. For extra smooth potatoes, use a hand mixer or potato ricer. Season to taste. Do not add salt before tasting because the chicken stock and boursin cheese both contain sodium so wait until the end to adjust the seasoning. Garnish with chopped green onion.

Made this last night and it was a hit. I didn’t use the chicken broth because I wasn’t sure my kids would like the taste. So I just boiled it in water. I have to say it came out amazing. This is the second recipe i have tried by you. Next I’m going to do the meatball recipe. Can’t wait to try them. Thanks again for sharing your amazing recipes.

I made your mashed potatoes tonight for dinner and all I can say is DAMN they were delicious! I thought the Boursin cheese was going to be expensive but I got it on sale at Kroger for $3.99. I think that really set the taste off along with the milk and cream. This recipe will definitely be in my dinner rotation!

Looks yummy!! Tip for you. Just boil the potatoes with the skin, once they're done, let them cool to the touch, and you'll be able to peel the skin off in seconds even with your fingers. I'm able to peel a 3lb bag in less than 5 minutes this way. Hope that helps ❤

I am new to your YT channel (and IG). Love the video and recipes and also how descriptive and informational you are. THANK YOU @Mr. Make It Happen. My mashed potatoes are just okay and I never thought to boil it in chicken stock and or to add the boursin cheese. I will now!!!. Also, I noticed you weren't so keen on peeling potatoes 😄 neither is my husband. What I do is wash and clean the skin of the potatoes and cut them in halves or quarters, depending on the size and just boil them. The skin comes right off once the potatoes are fully boiled. 👌🏾 no hassle and you can leave some skin if you'd like. Just my tidbit for anyone who isn't a fan of potato peeling👍🏾. Now I'm going to make this mash potatoes this way tonight 👏🏾👏🏾
