Scrumptious Mashed Potatoes

My mother always called mashed potatoes "whipped potatoes". These are the best potatoes ever! You know what? I honestly can't ever remember a lump in my moms "whipped potatoes" (not even one). They were so smoothy, creamy, fluffy, buttery, and scrupulously delicious! Mmmm, mmmm, good!

 

Ingredients:

• 5 lbs peeled potatoes (Russet or Yukon Golden)
• 1 cup butter 
• 1 (12 ounce) can canned milk
• 1 teaspoon salt (you may like more salt. add to taste)
• 1 teaspoon pepper  (you may like more pepper. add to taste)

Directions:

1.  Boil the potatoes.
2.  Drain the potatoes, saving 1/2 cup of the water.
3.  Add the butter.
4.  Whip with beaters adding the canned milk until creamy.
5.  If you are out of milk or need more liquid, add potato water. Salt and pepper to taste.
