I only make one recipe when it comes to my Holiday Mashed Potatoes and that is with The Pioneer Woman's recipe.  I follow this recipe exactly as written except I make the potatoes in the InstaPot for convenience and speed.Ingredients/Directions

• 5 pounds Russet Or Yukon Gold Potatoes

• 3/4 cups Butter

• 1 package (8 Oz.) Cream Cheese, Softened

• 1/2 cup (to 3/4 Cups) Half-and-Half

• 1/2 teaspoon (to 1 Teaspoon) Lawry's Seasoned Salt

• 1/2 teaspoon (to 1 Teaspoon) Black Pepper

Peel and cut the potatoes into pieces that are generally the same size.  Add to InstaPot along with 1 - 1 1/2 cups water.  Cook Manual, High for 14 minutes.

Drain the potatoes in a large colander. When the potatoes have finished draining, place them back into the dry pot. Mash the potatoes over low heat, allowing all the steam to escape, before adding in all the other ingredients.

Add 1 ½ sticks of butter, an 8-ounce package of cream cheese and about ½ cup of half-and-half. Mash, mash, mash! Next, add about ½ teaspoon of Lawry’s Seasoning Salt and ½ a teaspoon of black pepper.Stir well and place in a medium-sized baking dish. Throw a few pats of butter over the top of the potatoes and place them in a 350-degree oven and heat until butter is melted and potatoes are warmed through. * Since I make these the day ahead this step is skipped until serving day.Note: When making this dish a day or two in advance, take it out of the fridge about 2 to 3 hours before serving time. Bake in a 350-degree oven for about 20 to 30 minutes or until warmed through.
