Uncle Dick's Mashed Potatoes image

This is recipe is loved by everyone who has tried it. My husband's uncle kept this recipe a secret for many years and would not share it with anyone; we had to wait until he passed away, and then my husband's aunt gave us the recipe. I made these for a Thanksgiving dinner we had at church, and now every time we have any sort of meal at church I am always asked if I going to make uncle Dick's potatoes. Even in the summer, this is what they want me to make. I hope you enjoy this recipe as much as we do.

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

These mashed potatoes were a bit too bland for my taste. I added some extra salt and pepper and they were much better.

These mashed potatoes were easy to make and turned out great! I used Yukon Gold potatoes and they were very creamy. I added a little extra butter and milk to make them even creamier.

I've tried many mashed potato recipes over the years, but this one is by far my favorite. The potatoes are so creamy and flavorful, and the addition of sour cream and butter makes them extra special. I will definitely be making this recipe again and
