Category: Mashed Potatoes
    Prep Time:       Cook Time:       Total Time:  

2 lbs russet potatoes
7 tbsp unsalted butter, softened
2 1/2 tbsp mascarpone cheese
1 tsp freshly ground black pepper
1 tbsp kosher salt

Peel and cut potatoes into quarters lengthwise and cut those quarters in half across the length. Place in a bowl of cool water. When all of the potatoes are peeled and cut, drain the potatoes and place in a stockpot with enough cool water to cover by 2 inches. Bring potatoes to a boil over a high heat and boil the potatoes until tender. This should take about 30 minutes after the water comes to a boil. Test the potatoes by sticking a fork into the center of one of the pieces of potatoes.


When the potatoes are done, drain, and working quickly, place the potatoes in the bowl of a mixer fitted with a wire whip. Add the softened butter and turn the mixer on low speed. Mix potatoes for 10 seconds and then add the mascarpone cheese. Stop the machine, and with a spatula scrape down the sides of the bowl. Add the salt and pepper. Turn the machine on medium speed and whip the potatoes well. If the potatoes are a little dry, add a little more mascarpone cheese. The potatoes should be creamy and fluffy. Not too dry and not too runny. Turn mixer off and place the potatoes into a serving dish. Serves 4 to 6
