Chef Mickey's Parmesan mashed potatoes, has anyone made them?

[Disney1-30-98]

Was wondering if anyone has made them and how did they turn out. Was wondering if they were as good.

As for how making them at home compares to those at Chef Mickey's I can't say. The night we ate there everything was dried out & unappealing. However, my mother used to put Parmesan in her mashed potatoes before Walt even bought property in FL! Yum!

I have 2 versions of the recipe copied down & prefer the one with more cheese & less butter. I'd say go ahead & try them. The recipe is wonderful - even if you do have to make it yourself & won't see Mickey! You can always twirl your napkins, though.

Thanks for the advice. Sorry you didn't like Chef Mickey's. I go mostly for my kids not the food, but the potatoes I think are yummy!!
I will try it at home.

PARMESAN POTATOES
from Chef Mickey's, Contemporary resort

3 large baking potatoes
3 Tbsp. butter
1/2 C. grated parmesan
1 C. warm milk

Peel the potatoes and cut into chunks and boil about 15 minutes until tender. Mash, using a potato masher or a heavy fork. Put back in the pot with the butter, cheese and milk. Blend well, adding salt and pepper to taste. (Do not use a food processor for this recipe.)

Mmmmmm - I'm hungry for these now!
