Mashed Potatoes

Ingredients:
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter
1/4 cup heavy cream
8 to 10 medium Yukon Gold potatoes
Salt and white pepper
1/4 tsp. fresh grated nutmeg

Preparation:
Peel potatoes and cut into 1 to 1 1/2 inch cubes. Place in pot and cover with water. Boil potatoes until tender when a fork is inserted into the center of a cube. This will take approximately 20 minutes. Drain water and return potatoes to the pan and place back on the heat, stirring constantly, just for a minute or so to dry potatoes. Run potatoes through a potato ricer and place in mixing bowl. Add butter, nutmeg, salt and pepper. Place wire beater on mixer and whip potatoes until creamy. If potatoes are too thick, add a little cream.

Adjust seasonings.

Serving Suggestion:
These potatoes look great when squeezed from a pastry bag.
