Ingredients

Instructions

Peel and dice potatoes. Place potatoes in a large sauce pan, add salt and cover with water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat and cook until potatoes fall apart when poked with a fork (around 20 minutes). In a medium saucepan, heat milk and garlic over medium heat until simmering. Set aside.
Remove the potatoes from heat and drain the water. Mash the potatoes and add the garlic-milk mixture and whip together using an electric mixer or whisk. Add Parmesan and stir to combine. Let stand for a few minutes to thicken, then serve.

Made these potatoes tonight. Everything was perfect except the salt.
Think the two Tablespoons may be a typo. I would go with more like 2 teaspoons. Otherwise everything else was perfect

Momma Cyd says:

It’s tablespoons, but you can adjust it to however much salt you like.
