3 lbs yukon gold potatoes, scrubbed, peeled and cubed
1/2 - 3/4 cup milk
3 ounces cream cheese, cut into cubes
3 tablespoons butter
1/2 teaspoon salt (to taste)
1/4 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
1/8 - 1/4 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon chopped parsley
2 leeks, finely chopped (white and light green parts only)
2 tablespoons butter

1
Put diced potatoes in a large saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil and cover and simmer 12 minutes or until tender. Drain; return cooked potatoes to pot.
2
While potatoes are cooking: In a skillet over med-high heat, melt 2 tbsp butter and add chopped leeks. Sautee the leeks, stirring often, for about 5 minutes, or until leeks are soft (slightly brown is OK).
3
Add the cooked chopped leeks to the pot of drained, cooked potatoes. Add the milk, cubed cream cheese, 3 tbsp butter, salt, pepper, paprika, and parsley.
4
Mash everything together w/ potato masher to desired consistency. (I like this a little on the chunkier side).
