  Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
     1/3  cup           heavy cream
     1/3  cup           milk
   2                    russet potatoes, -- peeled and cut into 
                        Salt and freshly ground black pepper
   2      tablespoons   unsalted butter

Combine the cream and milk in a small saucepan, heat through and keep warm. 
Put the potatoes
in a saucepan, cover with cold water by one inch, season with salt and bring 
to a boil. Reduce
heat and simmer until the potatoes are tender. Be careful not to overcook them 
or they will
become waterlogged. Drain, return the potatoes to the pan and cook over a 
moderate heat to dry
out the potatoes, about 5 minutes. While the potatoes are still warm, push 
them through a ricer
into a bowl. Using a whisk, beat in the butter and the cream mixture. Season 
with salt and
pepper. Yield: 4 servings
