These are fabulous and can be made three days ahead. I followed exactly but next time I think I will cut the butter in half. Here is a hint to keep the potatoes from getting soggy in the crock. Lay a clean terry kitchen towel across the top of the crock then put the lid on. The towel absorbs the steam instead of it running back into the potatoes.

This recipe makes AWESOME garlic mashed potatoes when you use the Garlic and Herb Cream Cheese plus add garlic salt, oregano, and 1 cup of an Italian Cheese Blend

Don't forget to stir them occasionally or they could stick and burn.
