Ingredients

  • 5 pounds Red potatoes unpeeled and cut into chunks
  • 1 stick butter cut into tablespoon size pieces (plus additional for dotting finished dish if desired)
  • ½ cup half and half
  • ½ cup sour cream
  • 1 5.2- ounce package Boursin Garlic and Fine Herbs cheese; crumbled
  • 1 teaspoon coarse salt
  • 1 ½ teaspoons freshly ground pepper
  • 1 teaspoon paprika

Instructions

  • Place potatoes into large saucepan and add enough water to cover by about an inch. Cook over medium-low heat until fork tender, about 15-20 minutes.
  • Drain potatoes in a colander and then put the potatoes back into the pot they were cooked in. Mash potatoes over low heat until smooth.
  • In a microwave safe measuring cup, combine butter and half and half. Warm until butter has melted. Add the butter mixture, sour cream, and boursin cheese to potatoes.
  • Continue to mash the potatoes until everything is thoroughly combined and all large chunks are broken up. Stir in salt and pepper and mix until combined.
  • Put potatoes into a serving bowl for serving; cover with aluminum foil to keep warm. If necessary, warm in 350º F oven for about 20 minutes before serving.
  • When ready to serve, sprinkle with salt, pepper and paprika. Dot with a couple of tablespoons of additional butter if desired.
  • Serve warm.
