Mashed Potatoes

These are a very basic mashed potato. The only difference is how they are whipped with the kitchen aid. They are super smooth and fluffy....

Ingredients
5 large potatoes, peeled, quartered, and boiled
1/2 cup low fat milk, heated
2 tbs. butter
1 tsp. salt
1/8 tsp. pepper

Directions
Warm mixer bowl and flat beater with hot water; dry. Place hot potatoes in bowl. Attach bowl and flat beater to mixer. Gradually turn to speed 2 and mix until smooth, about 1 minute.
Add all remaining ingredients. Turn to Speed 4 and beat until milk is absorbed, about 30 seconds. Gradually turn to Speed 6 and beat until fluffy, about 1 minute. Exchange flat beater for wire whip. Turn to Speed 10 and whip 2 to 3 minutes.

I served these with Shake N Bake Chicken and green beans. They are worth the extra time to beat and make fluffy.
