Ingredients

  • 2 pounds Russet potatoes
  • 1 tablespoon Salt
  • 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter
  • 0.5 cup Heavy cream
  • 6 ounces Brie cheese (rind removed)
  • 0.5 teaspoons Ground black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons Chopped fresh chives (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Peel the potatoes and cut them into evenly sized chunks, about 2 inches in diameter, to ensure even cooking.

Step 2

Place the potato chunks in a large pot and cover with cold water. Add 1 tablespoon of salt to the water.

Step 3

Bring the pot to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce heat to a simmer. Cook the potatoes for 15-20 minutes, or until they are fork-tender.

Step 4

While the potatoes are cooking, prepare the Brie cheese by cutting off the rind and slicing it into smaller pieces for easier melting. Set aside.

Step 5

Drain the cooked potatoes in a colander and return them to the pot. Allow them to sit in the pot for a couple of minutes over low heat to evaporate any remaining moisture.

Step 6

Add the butter and heavy cream to the potatoes. Mash the mixture using a potato masher or ricer until smooth and creamy.

Step 7

Stir in the Brie cheese pieces, one handful at a time, allowing the heat of the potatoes to fully melt the cheese. Continue stirring until the cheese is completely incorporated.

Step 8

Season the mashed potatoes with ground black pepper and additional salt to taste, if needed.

Step 9

Transfer the Brie mashed potatoes to a serving dish and garnish with chopped fresh chives, if desired. Serve immediately.
