These Creamy Mashed Potatoes have no lumps and are my absolute favorite way to make mashed potatoes. Plus they work as a great addition to just about any meal.

Made with just a few simple ingredients of russet potatoes, cream cheese, butter and the right seasonings.

You will find that the best mashed potatoes will result from these three things.

This recipe here is great for serving 6-8 people, so if you have more or less to feed just use the recipe server below and the recipe will auto populate the ingredients so you don’t have too.

There are a few tricks to getting your potatoes so creamy, and step one is using the right tool for the job.

Back in the day we used potato mashers, but those always left clumps in the potatoes and today they’re becoming less and less popular since people are learning that with a potato ricer you can have the creamiest mashed potatoes ever without the clumps.

Below you will find a link under my kitchen essentials where you can find an excellent potato ricer, trust me it’s a kitchen tool you will come to love.

If you do not mind a few lumps in your mashed potatoes then a regular masher will do a great job as well.

Potato ricers look like the one below!

You can cook these potatoes in the slow cooker or if you like on the stove top, completely up to you.

Just keep in mind that the stovetop method cooks them much quicker and is my prefered method.

Note: These can be done in your slow cooker as well, just follow steps 1-2 and place them in the slow cooker anywhere from 4-6 hours then follow steps 4-5 and you’re done. Don’t skimp on the salt it really helps to bring the flavors all together.
