Wash and quarter potatoes. Place in large pot; cover with cold water. Bring to a boil; reduce to a simmer and cook 15 minutes, or until potatoes are fork-tender.

Drain, reserving 1 cup of cooking liquid, then return potatoes to pot. Add butter, cream cheese and sour cream. Mash until incorporated but not totally smooth, leaving some lumps.
