Not much beats mashed potatoes—except a cheesy mashed potato casserole studded with golden breadcrumbs.
Ingredients
1 kg Yukon Gold potatoes, peeled and cut into 1-in cubes
1/2 250-g pkg cream cheese, at room temperature
1/2 cup milk
1/4 cup melted butter, divided
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 cup 35% cream
3 slices white sandwich bread
Instructions
Preheat oven to 425F.
Boil potatoes in a large pot of water until tender, about 15 min. Drain well.
Whisk cream cheese with milk, 2 tbsp butter and salt in a large bowl until com-bined. Whisk in cream. Season with fresh pepper. Working in batches, push potatoes through a ricer into same bowl. Whisk until combined. Scrape into an 8 x 8-in. baking dish, smoothing top.
Whirl bread in a food pro-cessor until fine crumbs form. Pulse in remaining butter. Sprinkle crumbs evenly over potatoes.
Bake in centre of oven until top is golden and potatoes are warmed through, 10 min.
