Who doesn’t love mashed potatoes? Every now and then, though, it’s nice to have some variation on your traditional mashed potatoes. I discovered this recipe two years ago when Hoosier Homemade posted it! It’s perfect for Easter, Thanksgiving, or when you need a comfort food fix!
Here’s my variation of the recipe:
