Jarlsberg cheese is my new cheese obsession. I got a Costco size hunk of cheese from ya know, Costco and I had to find many of ways to use it. Now I’m not a cheese experts and there are a lot of different cheese, so I don’t keep up with cheese I have and haven’t tried. But using obvious visual signs I could tell this cheese was super creamy. So I did a couple recipes here and there and I just really wanted to make a homey comfort food extravaganza. I also use these couple trial months to see what I’ll be making for the holidays. Which ones stay and if I need to swap anything out. So the idea of adding a ton of this cheese into a mashed potatoes came to mind and I went for it. This recipe has a spot at the table for the holidays from here on out. Theses potatoes are buttery, creamy and cheesy. Try them out and let me know what you think.
