Linda's Mashed Potatoes
Linda makes them so good you'll never know they're instant potatoes!
- 3 cups water
- 1 1/2 sticks butter
- 1 tsp salt
- 2 cups milk
- 4 cups instant potato flakes
Place water, butter, and salt in a microwaveable bowl and heat mixture on high for 5 minutes.
Add milk and continue heating 2 additional minutes on high.
Remove the bowl from microwave and add potato flakes and whip with a fork until creamy. You can add more milk, butter or flakes, if needed.
Just before serving, heat 2 more minutes on high. Add pat of butler on top and serve. Makes about 8 to 10 (half cup) servings. Enjoy!
