Instant Pot Mashed Potatoes

2.5 lbs red potatoes- I love the flavor of red potatoes but Yukon gold, Russett, or a mixture would also work well.

½ cup chicken broth- This helps keep enough moisture for the Instant Pot to cook and adds a little bit of flavor. If you are in a pinch you could use water or milk instead.

3 cloves garlic- these need to be raw and can go in whole. They will cook with the potatoes and mash smoothly so the flavor is combined with the potatoes.

1 tsp salt

½ tsp pepper

½ cup butter- I use salted butter

8 oz cream cheese- I use original Philadelphia cream cheese, but you can also sub light. Do not use Fat-Free cream cheese in this recipe because it will not melt and combine well.

If you would like to add additional spices or flavors you can. If you add dried spices you can put them in before you cook. If you are using fresh spices, I would add them in at the same time as the butter and cream cheese.
