First off I peel a five pound sack of potatoes, I usually use the white one but I think the red ones would work just fine too. Put them on and let them boil until you can stick a fork in them and the potato is tender. Oh, I dice mine so that they cook faster. After they are done, drain them. Than add milk, butter, cream cheese, sour cream, salt and pepper. I use my hand held mixer to mix everything together.
Here is what they look like with some yummy meat loaf and green beans....yummmmm!!
one- five pound sack of potatoes
4 ozs. cream cheese, cut into cubes
8 ozs. sour cream
1/2 stick butter, sliced
1/4 cup to 1/3 cup, depends on how you like the consistency of your mashed potato
salt and pepper to taste
Peel and dice potatoes and place in pot large enough to hold, fill with water to cover the potatoes. After the potatoes are cooked to the tender stage, drain. Return the drained, cooked potatoes to your cooking pot. Add salt, pepper, milk, cream cheese, sour cream and butter. Mix well either with a potato masher or mixer until well blended. Serves about 6 to 8.
You can put them into a greased 9 x 13 inch baking dish and put them in the refrigerator, covered with foil for a couple of days. When you need them, put them into a preheat 350 degree oven and bake for 1 hour. You can also put additional slices of butter on the top, if desired.
I have used this recipe at Thanksgiving and put the mashed potatoes in a sprayed Crock-pot,large enough to hold them, and put them on LOW to re-heat and serve, I think for about 4 hours.
I hope you enjoy these potatoes, we sure do, in fact my one daughter can make a meal off of these!
Thanks for stopping in to see me. Mary

In a large mixing bowl combine your eggs, cake mix and oil ( I used a 1/2 cup of oil when I make my cookies).
Mix it all together until it looks like this, yes, it will look dry and be sticky and it may crumble just a bit but that is correct.
Now take about two tablespoons of your dough and make into round balls. As you can see here I have a handy, dandy cookie scooper for when I make cookies, it holds two tablespoons. My mother got this one for me before I got married (clear back in 1979) and it makes making cookies sooo easy and fast too! I would recommend you get one for yourself too!
Here they are all lined up to go into the oven. Now you can leave them rounded or you can squish them down some if you want, your preference.
Here they are after baking.







OK, here we go. In a large bowl, add--eggs, milk (I mix them together first),cracker crumbs, onion, salt, pepper, sage and ground beef.











First you need to put your yeast, sugar and warm water together so that they get all happy!
