Armchair Cook's Mashed Potatoes
This is a "once in awhile" dish due to the high fat content of the butter, olive oil and Miracle Whip. Everyone tells me they're the the best potatoes they've ever had.
5 potatoes, peeled and quartered
4T butter
1/4 cup milk (I always use soy milk, but cow's milk works just fine)
1t olive oil
2T Miracle Whip
Salt (I prefer kosher salt) and pepper to taste
DIRECTIONS:
1. Fill a medium size saucepan half full of water. Bring to a boil. Add potatoes to pot; the water should cover the potatoes. Simmer for 10 minutes, or until potatoes are easily pierced by a fork. Drain.
2. Transfer potatoes to a large mixing bowl. Add butter, milk, olive oil and Miracle Whip, and mix with an electric mixer on lowest speed. When well mixed, whip for a minute or two with an electric mixer set on medium speed.
4 to 6 servings.
