Cooking and Serving Tips

• Extra Creamy Texture: For ultra-smooth potatoes, use a hand mixer or potato ricer instead of a masher.

• More Cheese: Feel free to mix in an additional 1/4 cup of Parmesan or a different cheese like cheddar for a richer flavor.

• Make Ahead: Store mashed potatoes in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat with a splash of cream to restore creaminess.

This Creamy Parmesan Mashed Potatoes recipe delivers rich, indulgent flavor with a luscious, cheesy finish. 🍽️
