Mashed Potatoes with Cheddar image

Who doesn't love fluffy, homemade mashed potatoes? Make them even better with sharp cheddar cheese. To get them really creamy, my mother's secret was to add whipping cream instead of half-and-half. -Darlene Brenden, Salem, Oregon

I'm not a big fan of mashed potatoes, but these were actually really good. I'll definitely be making them again.

These mashed potatoes were a bit too cheesy for my taste. I'll try using less cheddar cheese next time.

I'm allergic to dairy, so I substituted the cheddar cheese with vegan cheese. It turned out great!

These mashed potatoes were bland and lacked flavor. I won't be making them again.

I followed the recipe exactly and the mashed potatoes turned out lumpy. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

I was a bit skeptical about adding cheddar cheese to mashed potatoes, but I'm glad I did. It added a richness and depth of flavor that I didn't expect.
