2 Tbsp Whipped Cream Cheese Spread

After placing potatoes in medium saucepan, cover with just enough water to cover potatoes. Bring to a boil; stir, cover, and reduce to simmer. Cook slowly, stirring often to avoid sticking. When all liquid is cooked out, drain potatoes in colander (just in case there is more liquid than you realize). Pour potatoes into a large bowl, and stir in Mojito de Ajo (Garlic Dipping Sauce) . Add cream cheese spread, stirring with a wooden spoon. Add pepper, and if the potatoes are not salty enough, add salt to taste. Avoid over-stirring, as this makes the potatoes too thin. I use a wooden spoon or potato masher; never a mixer.

I love Garlic Smashed taters. I don't quite make it like that, but this one sounds so yummy! Definitely trying it :)
I appreciate your comments, and if either of you try this recipe, please let me know how it turns out. If you have any suggestions or additions, I'm always ready to listen! :)
