CHANTILLY MASHED POTATO CASSEROLE
The addition of whipped cream into mashed potatoes is what makes them Chantilly mashed potatoes.

With a light and luxurious texture, it's a perfect side dish for any holiday or special occasion.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 475 degrees F (245 degrees C).
- Place potatoes into a pot, cover with fresh, cold water by 2 inches, and add 2 tablespoons kosher salt. Set heat to high and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium and simmer until tender, testing by poking potatoes with a knife. The time will depend on the size of your potatoes but could be between 15 and 20 minutes.
- Remove from the heat and let drain in a colander for 5 to 10 minutes.
- Transfer into a large bowl and mash thoroughly with a potato masher until no lumps remain. Add butter, kosher salt, and Gruyere cheese. Mix and mash until everything has been incorporated.
- Add cayenne, 3/4 cup Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese, and buttermilk, and mash until well combined. Taste and adjust for salt.
- Whisk cream in a metal bowl until thick and fairly stiff peaks form, 1 to 2 minutes. Pour 1/2 of the whipped cream onto the potatoes and cut it in with the side of a spatula to lighten the mixture. Repeat with remaining whipped cream but do it carefully to preserve the maximum amount of volume, cutting in until just barely mixed.
- Transfer into a well-buttered casserole dish and distribute gently with a fork. Smooth the top with a spoon if desired. Sprinkle remaining 1/4 cup Parmigiano-Reggiano on top and dust lightly with cayenne.
- Place the baking dish on a pan and bake in the center of the preheated oven until beautifully browned, 15 to 20 minutes.
- Remove from the oven and sprinkle with green onions before serving.

Steps:
- Set potatoes into a large stock pot, cover with water, and bring to a boil.

- Drain and set back into the pan (no heat) and mash.
- Add sour cream, neufchatel cheese, 4 Tbsp of the butter, onion, and salt to taste and stir until mixture is smooth and creamy.
- Spread evenly into a greased 9x13" glass baking dish, and using the back of a wooden spoon, press shallow craters into the surface evenly across the potatoes.

- To MAKE AHEAD: Prepare potatoes up until the part where you cover with foil- set the foil coverd pan in the fridge overnight; when ready to bake, set the pan on the counter for 30 minutes before placing into the preheated oven and bake as above.
HOLIDAY MASHED POTATOES
My mom passed this recipe on to me several years ago and I have been making it for every holiday dinner since. They can be made ahead, eliminating the need for mashing potatoes on the big day! I sprinkle a little paprika on top before baking to give it some color. Prep time does not include time it takes to boil the potatoes.

Steps:
- Beat hot potatoes until all lumps are removed.
- Add cream cheese (in small pieces) and the butter.
- Beat well until cheese and butter are completely melted and mixed.
- Stir in sour cream.
- Add eggs and onion to milk and add this to the potatoes with salt and pepper.
- Beat until light and fluffy.
- Place in a greased 9-inch casserole.
- Refrigerate several hours or overnight.
- Bake at 350 degrees for 1 hour or until lightly rounded on top (puffy).
Tips:
- Use Yukon Gold potatoes: These potatoes are known for their creamy texture and hold their shape well when mashed, making them ideal for a casserole.
- Boil the potatoes in salted water: Adding salt to the water helps to season the potatoes and prevents them from becoming bland.
- Mash the potatoes until smooth: Avoid leaving any lumps in the potatoes, as this will affect the texture of the casserole.
- Add plenty of butter and milk: Butter and milk help to create a creamy and flavorful mashed potato casserole. Use unsalted butter to control the amount of salt in the dish.
- Season the mashed potatoes well: Don't be afraid to add salt, pepper, and garlic powder to taste. You can also add other herbs and spices, such as thyme, rosemary, or sage.
- Top the casserole with cheese: A layer of cheese on top of the mashed potatoes adds a delicious and golden-brown crust.
- Bake the casserole until bubbly: The casserole is done baking when it is bubbling around the edges and the cheese is melted and golden brown.

Sandy's Holiday Mashed Potato Casserole is a delicious and easy-to-make side dish that is perfect for any occasion.
