The holidays are upon us and that calls for really special potatoes. The kind that elicit raves from family and friends. These Decadent Smashed Potatoes are just that kind. Creamy, lovely, decadent smashed potatoes!
Drain potatoes and place them in large bowl (if using a hand mixer) or in the bowl of a stand mixer mixer with a paddle attachment. Mix just long enough to break potatoes up. Add hot half and half/ butter mixture a little at a time while mixing on lowest speed. Add crème fraiche, chives and Parmesan cheese. Salt and pepper to taste.
Serve alone or with gravy
