Ingredients
- 2 lbs Yukon Gold potatoes
- 6 tbsp heavy cream
- 2 tbsp unsalted butter
- 3 tbsp shredded Parmesan cheese
- 3 tbsp Mascarpone cheese
- salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Peel and dice potatoes, making sure all are in about 1 inch cubes.
- Place in a large pot and cover with water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat and then reduce heat to medium low to maintain a rolling boil. Cook until potatoes are fork tender and you can easily pierce them with a fork when touched.
- Remove the potatoes from the heat and drain off the water. Place the diced potatoes through a ricer and then place back into the warm pot. Alternatively, if you don't have a ricer, mash the potatoes with a masher and place back into the warm pot
- Add the cream, butter, Parmesan, mascarpone and garlic and stir to incorporate. Season with salt and pepper and fold in the chopped chives before serving.
