Mashed Potatoes Rocco Style

Love Thanksgiving.....Really my favorite holiday. No Presents to buy, no stress, and plenty of awesome food to eat. Here is my personal mashed potato recipe. Fat Free? Heavens NO! Enjoy, Gandy
I make alot, so cut this down to as much as you need.

10 pounds yukon gold potatoes. Peel, dice and boil in salted water until done. Drain. While still hot, throw back in cooking pot and add:
     2 8oz packages cream cheese.
     2 sticks butter
Let sit in the middle of the hot potatoes for 5 minutes so they start to melt.

Add:
     2 Tbsp minced garlic
     salt and pepper to taste
     1 cup sour cream
     2 tsp garlic powder
     2 tsp onion powder
Smash and crash these spuds by hand or with your mixer. Remember, don't whip out all the lumps, the best mashed potatoes have texture. This is a simple, but delicious recipe. Stay tuned, more to come as we count down to Turkey Day.
