This is my sister's recipe (Gail). She so kindly gave me this recipe YEARS ago and I have been making it for Thanksgiving and Christmas ever since. It can be made 1-2 days ahead of time.
3 lbs potatoes, cooked, peeled (I don't always) and hot.
8 oz cream cheese
1/4 cup margerine (I use butter)
1/2 cup sour cream
1/2 cup milk (I use cream. Why not?)
2 eggs
1/4 cup chopped onions (optional)
Mash potatoes in mixer. Add cream cheese in small pieces, then margerine, sour cream. Beat eggs with milk & add to potatoes. Beat and pour into a greased casserole dish (I use a 9x13 pan). Bake at 350 for 45 minutes or until browned lightly on top.
What I do: I usully make two batches for the holidays. One batch plain (no onion) and then the second batch I either add sauteed onions or roasted garlic. For Christmas, I put paprika on one batch and parsley on the other. Makes it a little festive.
