Just Good Mashed Potatoes

This is from May/June 2006 issue of Paula Deen. So simple, but delicious. Sour cream really makes these pop!

• Ready In: 17 mins
• Serves: 8

Ingredients

• 8  cups  peeled and coarsely chopped potatoes (about 4 large)
• 1⁄4 cup butter
• 1⁄4 cup milk
• 1⁄4 cup sour cream
• 1 1⁄2 teaspoons salt
• 1⁄4 teaspoon pepper

Directions

1. In a large saucepan, cook potatoes 10-12 minutes, or until tender, in enough water to cover; drain. Return potatoes to hot saucepan and let sit on burner (with burner off) until excess water has steamed off potatoes.
