- Preheat the oven to 180˚C/160˚C fan/gas mark 4. Bring a large pot of salted water to a simmer and add the potatoes. Bring to a boil and cook for 30 minutes or until very tender.
- Drain the potatoes well, turning the heat off on the hob. Return the pot to the hob and mash the potatoes. Allow all of the steam to escape before adding the other ingredients.
- Add 140g of the butter, the cream cheese and the milk or cream. Mash vigorously until smooth. Add salt and black pepper to taste and stir well.
- Transfer the potatoes to a baking dish. Use a fork to make ridges in the top of the potatoes.
- Dot the remaining butter over the top and bake for 25-30 minutes until golden on top.
Note: Cream can be used as an alternative to Milk, if you wish.
