- 2 pounds of Yukon Gold potatoes, peeled and quartered

- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- Salt and black pepper to taste

Instructions
- Start by boiling a big pot of salted water. Toss in those quartered Yukon Gold potatoes and let them cook until they’re fork-tender, about 15-20 minutes.
- While your potatoes are boiling, in a small saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Add the milk and sour cream to the butter, stirring until it’s all combined and warmed through.
- Once the potatoes are ready, drain them and return them to the pot. This is your moment, so give them a little mash with a potato masher until they reach your desired smoothness.
- Pour in that creamy butter mixture along with the smoked paprika, and mix everything together until the potatoes are luxuriously creamy. Season with salt and black pepper to your liking.
- If you wanna get fancy, sprinkle some chopped chives or green onions on top for that extra pop of color and flavor.
