Step 1

Grease a 13 x 9-inch casserole dish.

Step 2

Cook potatoes in a large pot of boiling water with 1 tablespoon salt and 1 tablespoon white vinegar until just fork-tender (do not cook the potatoes until very soft just until a fork goes easily into the potatoes all the way) drain and place in a large bowl.

Step 3

Using an electric mixer beat the hot potatoes until just semi smooth and still a little chunky (I use my Kitchen Aid stand mixer for this).

Step 4

Add in cream cheese, sour cream, butter, onion powder, salt and black pepper. continue beating until combined and smooth.

Step 5

Spread the mixture into prepared baking dish.

Step 6

If desired you may sprinkle the top lightly with paprika, then allow to come down to room temperature.

Step 7

Cover and refrigerate for up to 24 hours the potatoes must be completely cooled before covering).

I scaled the recipe back to make for 3 and was wishing I had made more though I did put on more cheese than was called for and I also sprinkled on some smoky paprika. Thoroughly enjoyed, thank you Kittencal, made for Alphabet Soup tag game.
