DUCHESS POTATOES
I really like this fun version of mashed potatoes. Everyone gets their own serving or you can get really creative and pipe them around your entree. I also love that you can make them one day ahead. From Betty Crocker's Meat and Potatoes.

Steps:
- Cut potatoes into large pieces if desired.

Tips:
- To achieve the lightest and fluffiest duchess potatoes, use a potato ricer to create smooth and airy mashed potatoes.
- Ensure your butter is at room temperature before incorporating it into the mashed potatoes; this will help create a smooth and creamy texture.
- Use freshly grated Parmesan cheese for the best flavor; pre-packaged or powdered cheese may not provide the same depth of taste.
- Pipe the duchess potatoes onto a parchment paper-lined baking sheet to prevent them from sticking and ensure even cooking.
- Before baking, chill the piped duchess potatoes in the refrigerator or freezer for at least 30 minutes; this will help them hold their shape better during baking.
- Bake the duchess potatoes at a high temperature (400°F or 200°C) for the first 10-15 minutes to create a crispy golden exterior, then reduce the temperature to 350°F or 175°C to cook them through without burning.
- Keep an eye on the duchess potatoes during baking to ensure they don't overcook and become dry; they should be slightly puffed and golden brown when done.
