Very good. I made some modifications. I added some white potatoes just to see what it would taste like, still very good. It was a little sweet so, if you serve with something with a sweet sauce it will be okay but otherwise I would cut down the sugar. I also added Tarragon-I don't know why, about 1 teaspoon worth, it was tasty. I think I will be adding this to Thanksgiving this year!

This recipe is awesome. My husband thought this was (sweetened mashed potatoes with cheese. This was the first time we've eaten parsnips. Next time, I'll have to reduce the amount of sugar.

This had great flavor and so easy. I used cream cheese instead of mascarpone and it tasted great and creamy.
