Easy Mashed Potatoes

4 pounds russet potatoes potatoes(5-6 large potatoes)

1 ¼ cups milk

6 tablespoons unsalted butter

1 tsp salt

¼ tsp ground white pepper(or black pepper)

⅓ cup fresh chives(chopped, or less to taste; optional)

Instructions

Peel the potatoes and cut into 1-inch pieces.

Transfer potatoes to a Dutch oven and add enough cold water to cover by 2 inches. Bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to medium and simmer until tender, about 15 minutes. Remove from heat and drain in a colander.

Meanwhile, combine the milk, butter, salt, and pepper in a small saucepan over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until milk is warm and butter melts, about 2 minutes.

Combine the potatoes and milk mixture in the bowl of a stand mixer. Beat on medium-low speed with the paddle attachment until potatoes are fluffy, 2-3 minutes.

Add the chives and beat until incorporated, about 20 seconds longer.

Transfer potatoes to a bowl and serve.
