She Loves Wine Christmas Potatoes

Fattening – sinful and scrumptious!
(scale down if not making these for a crowd)

Peel, quarter and boil:
10 Pounds potatoes

Drain. Divide the following into 3 batches and
Mix with the electric mixer. ( If you try to do this
In 2 batches, you will have a mess – ask me how I know)

1 Pound Butter -soft
2 8 oz Cream Cheese – softened and cubed
2 Large Sour Cream
Salt & Pepper to taste

Everytime I make these they turn out a little different depending on the
Potatoes. So gauge the consistency as you go – if too thick, add a
little milk – you don’t want them to be like paste.

Combine the batches and mix together in a huge baking pan or in
two 8 x 13” pans. I sprinkle the top with parsley and/or paprika to make it
look pretty. Cover and refrigerate. Before baking – remove from refrig an
hour or more ahead of time or allow extra time to bake. Warm with foil
removed at 350 for at least 1 hour or until heated through, depends on
how cold it was to begin with.

Enjoy and don’t think about all the calories – there’s always “tomorrow”.
