Remove the onions from the pot and add the diced potatoes.

Add enough water to cover the potatoes and bring to a boil.

Once boiling, reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for 15 to 20 minutes until the potatoes are tender and almost falling apart.

Drain the excess water, leaving about half an inch of water in the pot.

Add the sautéed onions back to the pot along with the cream.

Stir to combine and allow the butter to melt and heat through.

Use a potato masher to mash the potatoes to your desired consistency or use an immersion blender for a smoother texture.

Season with salt and pepper to taste and mix well.

Prepare toppings such as bacon, shredded cheese, and chives.
