Snowy Mashed Potato Casserole

I have relied on the boxed instant mashed potatoes for years. Then I tried this... yum.

Ingredients:
4 lbs potatoes (about 12 medium)
1 pkg 8 oz cream cheese, softened
1 c. sour cream
2 t. salt
1/8 t. pepper
1 t. minced garlic
1 T. chives
1/2 t. paprika
1 T. margarine

Peel and slice potatoes and cook in boiling salted water until tender, about 15 minutes. Drain; mash in large bowl. Add cream cheese, sour cream, salt, pepper and garlic. Beat at high speed until smooth and light. Stir in  chives. Spoon into lightly greased baking dish. Sprinkle with paprika and dot with margarine. Bake at 350° for 30 minutes.

No gravy needed for this mashed potato dish. Probably no leftovers either. A guaranteed hit at potlucks.
