Step 2

Return potatoes to saucepan; mash potatoes with potato masher until there’s no lumps.

Step 3

Add Butter (1 cup) , Cream Cheese (1 cup) , Half and Half (1 cup) , and Ground Black Pepper (to taste) . Continue mashing to make potatoes smooth and creamy. You may add more half and half or milk to make them creamier.
