A bit hesitant to add the full amount of cheese and butter. Thought I would have enough left over for the next day. Four of us enjoyed the lot. Will definitely make it again but just go light on the butter only. Thought it would be sloppy but no, and certainly a good talking point at the table. Enjoying the last of our old potatoes "downunder" before we dig our new spuds with mint sauce. Yum.

These were very smooth and had a good taste. Next time I think I'll use more cream cheese and/or sour cream and see what happens.

This was excellent!! I had a similar recipe with the cream cheese and all but not the egg. This is so much better and nice and fluffy.. Thankyou!
