Thanksgiving Mashed Potatoes

Everyone at my Thanksgiving table typically likes their mashed potatoes one special way or another and none of them seem to like the same thing. One person does not like milk in mashed potatoes another only likes them with cheese, another likes them smooth another likes them chunky. Finally I came up with this recipe and they got rave reviews from everyone!
