My mom, Dianna, has been making these rich, elegant mashed potatoes since I was a girl. They are a permanent guest at every holiday table, and I've yet to meet anyone who doesn't love them. Come to find out, she got the recipe from my Grandma Eva, who wasn't actually my grandma but holds that spot in my heart. Try them; they'll find a place in your heart, too. I adapted the recipe by replacing sour cream with creme fraiche, adding lemon zest and chives, but these buttery mashed potatoes are delightful in their original form, as well.
