How can I thicken my mashed potatoes to make them creamier?

I often struggle with mashed potatoes that are too runny. Does anyone have reliable methods for thickening them up while still keeping that creamy texture? Would love to learn more about your approaches!

Hey! Easy fix! Try adding a bit of cream cheese or sour cream—makes them super creamy! If they're too thin, a sprinkle of instant potato flakes works like magic.

For sure! If they’re too runny, mix in some instant potato flakes or a bit of cream cheese—it thickens them right up and stays creamy!
