Back to my old recipe next time!
Rated: 3 stars out of 5

I almost always love Emeril's recipies, but this one is not my favorite. I made these exactly according to the recipe,... but doubled everything for a big dinner. The smoked gouda gave the potatoes a nice smoky flavor, but overall they were just too heavy with the heavy cream, butter, and the cheese all mixed in. My standard recipe calls for butter and half & half and always gets rave reviews. Back to my old reliable recipe!Read more

Best Potatoes I ever made
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I made these mashed potatoes for the first time this Christmas. They were a huge hit and were gone before I even sat down to... eat. My boyfriend absolutely loved them and his taste buds are very hard to please. I make them now every so often with dinner. When I cook I usually don't measue anything so I kind of just eyeball everything and use my tastebuds and I think it still comes out great.Read more

Best ever!!!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I used to make Emeril's garlic mashed potatoes for Thanksgiving but when I tried this recipe two years ago, this is... definitely the winner for turkey day. My son loved the garlic potatoes but now I'm not allowed to make anything but these from now on. Very easy to make. Instead of heavy cream, I used half-and-half warmed up. Also, I whip the potatoes and then fold in the smoked Gouda cheese. Everyone loves them.Read more

A Thanksgiving Staple!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I started making this for Thanksgiving about 4 years ago and have made it every year since! My husband absolutely LOVES it... and so do I! It's fairly eash to do -- but I would recommend having your grocery store grate the cheese for you because it's a hassle to do it yourself. Another comment I have -- maybe use a little less cheese than the recipe calls for. All that cheese seemed just a tad heavy for me. Overall though it's great! A wonderful recipe.Read more
