Thanaksgiving Sour cream and Chive mashed potatos

I love mashed potatoes. The creamy richness is super tasty. I love Thanksgiving,but since it only comes once a year I try to make special dishes. Me and my whole family love mashed potatoes.Every year we make some for Thanksgiving but this year I do not want to just put up plain mashed potatoes on the table so I put a spin on them. I added a little sour cream which I soon found it helps with flavor and texture. Then I added some chives which give flavor and a green color to the dish. Mashed potatoes are one of the easiest things to make and you make these the same way you just add a few extra ingredients.  Lots of  people make mashed potatoes on Thanksgiving so  I figured might as well put up a creative new recipe. I still add some salt and pepper at the end so it is not bland in seasoning but the two stars of this dish are the sour cream and chives!!!!!!!!! Enjoy your potatoes and your Thanksgiving!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ingredients-
2 pounds of gold potatoes peeled,washed,and cut into fourths
1/2cup of milk
1/2 cups of sour cream
1/4 cup of chopped fresh chives
Salt and pepper

Directions-
Place potatoes in a large pot with enough water to come up 2 inches from the bottom.
Bring to a boil, and cook for 20 to 25 minutes. 
Drain, and mash. 
Mix in the milk using a potato masher or an electric mixer until fluffy. 
Stir in the sour cream and chives, and season with salt and pepper.
Serve and enjoy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
