Ingredients
2 1/2 lbs Yukon Gold potatoes, peeled and cut into large, equal chunks
1/2 cup light cream
1/2–3/4 cup whole milk
6 Tbsp butter
3 Tbsp Stonewall Kitchen Maple Bacon Onion Jam
1 Tbsp chopped chives
1 tsp salt
Pepper, to taste

Place potatoes in a large pot of cold, well-salted water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer 15–20 minutes or until fork-tender.
