Ingredients

  • 2 lbs Yukon Gold potatoes, peeled and cut into chunks
  • ½ cup Hiland Dairy Sour Cream
  • 4 tbsp butter
  • ¼–½ cup warm milk or cream (as needed)
  • 1 tsp kosher salt (plus more to taste)
  • Black pepper to taste
  • ¼ cup chopped fresh chives
  • Optional: a squeeze of lemon to brighten

Directions

  • Boil potatoes – Place potatoes in a large pot of salted water. Bring to a boil and cook until fork-tender, about 12–15 minutes.
  • Mash with richness – Drain potatoes and return to the pot. Add butter and sour cream, then mash until smooth and creamy.
  • Adjust texture – Add warm milk or cream a little at a time until the potatoes reach your preferred consistency.
  • Season – Stir in salt, pepper, and fresh chives. Taste and adjust seasoning. Add a squeeze of lemon if you want a light brightness.
