Great recipe! I love mashed potatoes prepared this way! My nephew was in charge of the potatoes for Christmas Eve and this is exactly how he made them. He prefers margarine but when I make them I like butter and only butter ;-) Cheers!!!

I make mine a little different these days.
Tell your daughter I agree the lumps are needed for texture.

Awesome recipe! I used to give my mother the same grief and would not eat potatoes unless I could see the lumps!
