Make Ahead Mashed Potatoes

8 cups peeled potatoes, cut into 1" pieces
2 tsp. salt
3/4 cup milk
1/2 cup butter
1 (3 oz. package) cream cheese
paprika, if desired
Cut butter and cream cheese into cubes, leave out to soften.
Place potato pieces in a large saucepan, covering with water. Add salt and bring to boil over high heat. Reduce heat to medium and cook for about 15 minutes (until potatoes are fork tender.) Drain.
Place potatoes in a large mixing bowl. Mash on low speed, increasing speed to medium. Add 1/4 cup milk, butter, and cream cheese. Beat until smooth, about 1 to 2 minutes. Place in 3-qt. casserole dish and cover. Refrigerate 4 hours or overnight.
Heat oven to 325 degrees. Pour remaining milk (1/2 cup) over potatoes. Bake covered for 30 minutes. Stir and continue baking for another 20 to 30 minutes or until heated through. Sprinkle with paprika and serve.

Serves 10.
