Mom's Mashed Potatoes

Dienia B.'s Note:

These are the best potatoes. Mom calls them whipped potatoes. She doesn't like lumpy spuds. Use the left overs in hot beef sandwiches, shepherds pie, or the next meal of some sort, lol.

Very good and creamy potatoes. Very simple to make and the taste is wonderful. Thank you for sharing.

Wonderful mashed potatoes!!! I made a scaled back version, using about 1lb of potatoes and since I didn't need a full can of milk, used regular, but otherwise followed as written. With the butter and milk, I didn't need any of the reserved potato water. Served it with fried chicken and corn for a wonderful meal. Thanks for sharing the recipe. Made for Stars Tag Game.

Great! I thought I made enough to have leftovers to make shepard's pie, but after DS and friends finished, I couldn't spot a spud in the bowl! Everyone loved them. Thanks Dee!
