I put one stick of softened butter in my food processor and add 2 tbsp minced garlic. Not dried minced garlic. Give it a spin and let sit while potatoes are boiling. Add potatoes and a little milk and salt to taste Perfect every time
 
Evaporated can milk
Makes the best.
I always add my milk last after lumps are gone.
Its harder to get lumps out if u add milk first.
 
Boil in chicken stock and milk. Lots of butter, heavy cream, cream cheese, dash of sour cream. Garlic, salt, pepper, onion. I prefer slightly chunkier with some skins, but whatever you prefer
 
They are make ahead Mash Potatoes, When I make them for Thanksgiving I use 10 lbs of russet potatoes, 1lb of butter, 1lb of cream cheese, 3 1/4 cups sour cream. Soften the butter and cream cheese to room temperature, peel the potatoes and boil until tender, while they boil blend 11/3 cuo butter with cream cheese and sour cream. Drain the potatoes and mash or whip to your liking, add the cream cheese mixture and mix well, once all mixed load in crick pot and put in the fridge. On serving day slice the rest of the butter and put it on top if potatoes. Put crock pot on low setting for 2-3 hours until heated through then turn to warm setting until time to eat. You can also just eat them right after you make them if you want them that day.
