X-Traordinary Mashed Potatoes

5 lb. potatoes 1 c. sour cream 1 tsp. salt 1/4 tsp. pepper 8 oz. cream cheese, softened 2 tsp onion salt 2 tbsp. butter

Peel potatoes and cut into slices or chunks. Cook potatoes in salted water until tender. Drain potatoes and mash with mixer. Add remaining ingredients, mixing well. Put potatoes into a greased, 2-quart, casserole dish and dot with butter. Bake at 350 deg. casserole dish and dot with butter. Bake at 350 degree for 45 minutes. This turns ordinary mashed potatoes into x-troadinary mashed potatoes! Serves 8 to 12.

Note: The potato mixture can be covered and kept in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks before baking.

Helen suggests you can heat a smaller amount of these potatoes in your microwave.
