My husband and I loved this! My only complaint is that it didn't make enough. :) I will double it next time! Didn't have regular potatoes so I used sweet potatoes, and I think I will continue to do so. I also halved the butter and used skim milk - it turned out perfectly creamy and wonderful! - 12/6/12
