The Lady & Sons Mashed Potatoes

8 to 10 medium red new potatoes, skin on
1/2 C hot milk
1 stick butter
1/2 C sour cream*
salt and pepper to taste

Slice potatoes 1/4 inch thick. Cook in boiling water for 15 minutes or until fork tender. Whip unpeeled cooked potatoes with electric mixer; mix until moderately smooth. Don't over beat. Add hot milk, butter and sour cream. Salt and pepper to taste. Adjust thickness by adding more milk, if desired.

Serves 8

* I used reduced fat sour cream. A pitiful attempt to make these slightly more health conscious.

These are the BEST. Not only delicious, but easy too since you leave the skins on. I am not opposed to that. Our daughter ate them too, and she has not been a fan of mashed potatoes until these.
