Very nice version of mashed potatoes. I happen to have Herb and Garlic cream cheese on hand, so I used that. I also used parsley, as the chives are now covered with snow. Thanks Perfektlys for a lovely recipe. Made for Spring PAC 2009

I am a single mother who loves to cook. I love flavors and will try anything once. I enjoy taking a recipe that I find somewhere and changing it to fit my personal likes.
