Equipment

Ingredients
  

  • 2.5 lbs. Russel potatoes peeled and cut into cubes
  • 1 ½ teaspoons salt divided
  • 1 (5.3 oz. pkg.) Boursin Cheese
  • ⅔ cup half and half or whole milk
  • 4 Tablespoons butter melted
  • ¼ teaspoon pepper

Instructions
 

  • To a sauce pan, add the peeled and cut potato pieces and submerge the potatoes with water until they are completely covered. Add 1 tsp. salt.
  • Bring the potatoes to a boil over medium-high heat. Once boiling, reduce heat to medium, and simmer the potatoes for 15-20 minutes or until potatoes are fork-tender. Drain the water and keep the cooked potatoes in the pan.
  • To the hot potatoes, add the Boursin cheese, half and half and melted butter. Mash with a potato masher until added ingredients are melted and the potatoes are creamy and fluffy. Fold in the remaining 1/2 teaspoon of salt and 1/4 teaspoon of pepper. Taste for proper seasoning.
  • Serve right away while hot.

Notes

Want to make ahead for a holiday dinner or party? Make the potatoes as directed in the recipe. Cool to room temperature then store the potatoes in a resealable container. Reheat over low heat in a saucepan, adding a small amount of milk to make creamy again.
Slow Cooker serving: Transfer the prepared potatoes to a slow cooker or crock pot for serving for a holiday party or dinner. Heat on the lowest heat setting to keep warm.
Storage: Store any leftover potatoes in a resealable container. Keep refrigerated. When refrigerated, potatoes will keep for 5-7 days.
