Homemade Mashed Potatoes

I have made this recipe about a half dozen times over the last few months.  We love it!  Although, I can't say I've ever eaten a mashed potato recipe that I didn't like.  These are cheesy and garlicy, and you can't help but love them!  I'm also a fan of doubling the recipe because they reheat really well!

This photo is from the site I found the recipe.  I can never remember to take a picture of them when I make them, but they look just like this!

Recipe source:  Delicious as it Looks
Ingredients

1 1/2 pounds red potatoes, cut into cubes, skin left on (or off if you'd prefer that!)
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt, divided
1/4 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 cup sour cream
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1/4 cup unsalted butter, cut into pieces

Directions

1. Place potatoes in a large pot. Add enough water to cover the potatoes. Stir in 1 teaspoon of the kosher salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat, cover and simmer about 20 to 25 minutes.
2. Meanwhile, place the remaining 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt, pepper, garlic powder, sour cream, Parmesan cheese and butter in the bowl of an electric mixer.
3. When potatoes pierce easily with a paring knife, remove from heat and drain. Add potatoes to the bowl with the other ingredients and mix on medium speed until mostly smooth (there may be some lumps, but we usually don't mind that). Serve.
