These mashed potatoes were a bit too rich for my taste. I think I would have liked them better with less butter and cream cheese.

I thought these mashed potatoes were just okay. They weren't bad, but they weren't anything special either.

I followed the recipe exactly and the mashed potatoes turned out lumpy. Not sure what went wrong.

I've made mashed potatoes a million times, but this recipe was a game-changer. The potatoes were so fluffy and smooth, and the flavor was amazing. I'll never make mashed potatoes any other way again!

These mashed potatoes were heavenly! The addition of sour cream, cream cheese, and butter made them so rich and creamy. I also loved the hint of garlic and onion.
