I love potatoes, they go with everything. They can be prepared
in so many different ways; from fried and baked to mashed
and boiled. All equally tasty.

and sweet, to name a few. Yukon Gold is the potato of choice
for this wonderful Baked Mashed Potato recipe.

Baked Mashed Potatoes
with Gouda Cheese

3 pounds Yukon Gold Potatoes
Salt & Pepper
1 cup milk
1/2 stick unsalted butter
1 1/2 cups shredded Gouda Cheese
1/2 cup bread crumbs + 1 tbs butter

Fill large stock pot with cold water. Peel potatoes,
cut into quarters, place in stock pot, turn stove
to high heat. Boil until fork tender, about 10-12 minutes.

In a small sauce pan, simmer milk & butter while
potatoes boil. Heat oven to 350 degrees and lightly
grease a 13 x 9 glass or ceramic baking dish.

Drain potatoes in colander, return potatoes to pan,
slowly pour half the milk/butter mixture over potatoes.
With a potato masher, work milk into potatoes.
Salt/Pepper to taste. Add additional milk until smooth
and creamy. You will be adding cheese so make sure the potatoes are real creamy. A few lumps are great!!

Mix in cheese. Start with 1 cup, give it a
taste, add more to your liking. Transfer potatoes
to baking dish. Melt 1 tbs butter in microwave
safe bowl on low heat, mix in bread crumbs.
Sprinkle over potatoes. Bake 20-25 minutes
until bread crumbs begin to brown.
