How to cook deliciously - Martina McBride's Kansas Creamy Mashed Potatoes

1 . Stage

Add the potatoes to a large saucepan and cover with cold water by at least 1 inch. Add the salt and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium and cook, partially covered, until the potatoes are very tender, 12 to 15 minutes. Drain and return the potatoes to the pan.

2 . Stage

Break up the potatoes with a potato masher or a handheld mixer on low speed. Gradually add Country Crock® Spread and beat until incorporated. Gradually add the cream cheese, and sour cream, beating well after each addition.

3 . Stage

Gradually stir in the warm half-and-half, 2 tablespoons at a time, until well incorporated and the potatoes are fluffy and light (you may not need all the half-and-half). Stir in the thyme and season to taste with salt and pepper. Top with remaining tablespoon Country Crock® Spread.
