Yukon Gold Glorified Mashed Potatoes
Description
Purchased from the Wells Estate in Canton, Texas in 1987. Dated 1932. My family are Potato freaks. When I made this I scored a home run. It is now a weekly side dish in our household. I also serve it at our card parties but tripling the recipes. It gets gobbled up every time.
