Jalapeno Popper Mashed Potatoes image

I wanted to make mashed potatoes with a spicy kick, and since we had a lot of jalapenos and cream cheese needing to be used up, and because we love jalapeno poppers, I came up with this recipe. The fiance ate 3 servings and asked me to make this every time we have mashed potatoes! They were a little spicy but they were the best mashed potatoes I've ever eaten!

Time 35m

Yield 5

Number Of Ingredients 8

5 red potatoes, cubed
salt to taste
½ cup butter, divided
5 green onions, chopped
1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and minced, or more to taste
2 cloves garlic, minced
½ (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
½ cup sour cream

Steps:

  • Place potatoes into a large pot and cover with salted water; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until tender, about 15 minutes. Drain and transfer potatoes to a large bowl.
  • Melt 1/4 cup butter in a skillet over medium heat; cook and stir green onions, jalapeno pepper, and garlic until soft and fragrant, 3 to 4 minutes. Mix green onion mixture and cream cheese together in a bowl; add remaining 1/4 cup butter and stir until butter melts. Add sour cream and mix well.
  • Mix cream cheese mixture with the potatoes using a potato masher until most of the lumps are gone; season with salt.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my potatoes turned out dry and lumpy. I'm not sure what went wrong.

These potatoes were a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll add some more spices next time.

I'm not a big fan of jalapeños, but I still enjoyed these potatoes. The cheese and bacon helped to tone down the heat, and the potatoes were very creamy and flavorful.

These potatoes were a bit too spicy for my taste, but my husband loved them. I think next time I'll use half the amount of jalapeños.
