Ingredients

2 lb red potatoes, mostly peeled and cubed

1/8 cup sour cream

1/8 cup unsalted butter

1/4 cup Tillamook Mexican Blend shredded cheese

1 teaspoon kosher salt

1 teaspoon cracked black pepper

2 oz (or more if you’re feelin’ feisty) Secret Aardvark Habanero Hot Sauce

Preparation

Place potatoes in a saucepan, cover with water and bring to a boil.

Cook for 20 minutes or until tender. Drain thoroughly.

Add all other ingredients and mash. For a creamier texture, whip in a mixing bowl. Serve hot.

Bonus points: Pour mashed potatoes into an appropriately sized casserole dish, cover with additional cheese, and bake at 325 degrees until the cheese melts.
