• 3 pounds Yukon gold potatoes, peeled
• 1/2 stick butter, melted
• 1 cup half-and-half
• Salt and pepper
• 1 bunch chives, chopped

Boil potatoes until fork tender. Heat the butter and half-and-half over medium heat until hot, but not boiling. Drain the potatoes, return them to the pot and mash with a hand masher. Add hot liquid to potatoes and whip with an electric hand mixer until smooth. Season, to taste, with salt and pepper. Add chives and mix before serving.
