Peel the potatoes, cut them in half then place them in a large stock pot filled with salted water. (The water should be at least 1 inch above the potatoes.)

Drain the potatoes, then once they’re cool enough to handle, pass them through a ricer into a large bowl. Add the heavy cream mixture to the bowl, stirring to combine. Taste and season the potatoes with salt and pepper.
