Directions:
- Place potatoes in large saucepan and cover with 1-inch cold water; add 1 teaspoons salt and bay leaf. Bring to boil over high heat then reduce heat to medium-low and simmer gently until paring knife can be inserted into potatoes with no resistance, 35-45 minutes. Reserve 1/2 cup cooking water, then drain potatoes. Return potatoes to pot, discard bay leaf, and allow potatoes to stand in pot, uncovered, until surfaces are dry, about 5 minutes.
- While potaotes dry, whisk melted butter and softened cream cheese in medium bowl until smooth and fully incorporated.
- Add 1/4 cup of reserved cooking water, 1/2 teaspoons pepper, chives (if using) and 1/2 teaspoons salt. Using rubber spatula or back of wooden spoon, smash potatoes just enough to break skins. Fold in butter/cream cheese mixture until most of liquid has been absorbed and chunks of potatoes remain. Add more cooking water, 1 Tbsp, at a time as needed, until potatoes are slightly looser than desired. (potatoes will thicken slightly with standing). Adjust seasonings with salt and pepper, serve immediately.
