Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 6 servings

  • 6 Yukon Gold potatoes, peeled and cut into 1-inch pieces

  • 2 cups Swanson chicken broth

  • ½ cup light cream

  • 2 tablespoons butter

  • salt and ground black pepper to taste

Directions

  1. Combine potatoes and chicken broth in a 3-quart saucepan over medium-high heat; bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium, cover, and cook until potatoes are tender, about 10 minutes. Drain potatoes well in a colander, reserving the broth.

  2. Transfer potatoes back to the pan. Add reserved broth, cream, and butter. Mash until smooth and season with salt and pepper.

Recipe Tips

You can also use Swanson certified organic chicken broth or Swanson Natural Goodness chicken broth.

For ultimate mashed potatoes: After Step 2, stir 1/2 cup of sour cream, 3 slices of cooked and crumbled bacon, and 1/4 cup of chopped fresh chives into the hot mashed potatoes. Sprinkle more crumbled bacon over top.

For ultra-creamy sweet potatoes: Substitute 2 large sweet potatoes (about 2 pounds), peeled and cut into 1-inch pieces (about 5 1/2 cups) for the Yukon Gold potatoes. (Makes 5 servings.)
