Peel and dice Yukon Gold potatoes into uniform pieces.

Place diced potatoes in a dry pot and cover with water.

Bring the pot to a boil until the potatoes are fork-tender.

Add a whole package of cream cheese, a whole stick of butter, and sour cream to the pot with the potatoes.

Stir the mixture to combine the ingredients.

Use a hand mixer to whip the potatoes until creamy and fluffy, using the warm pot to help melt the butter and cream cheese.

Season the mixture with salt, pepper, and fresh chives, and whip again until combined.

Transfer the potato mixture to a baking dish.

Sprinkle cheddar cheese over the top of the potato mixture.

Bake in the oven until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and golden brown on top.
