4. Don't overcook the potatoes, or they will be waterlogged.
5. In a colander, drain the potatoes and discard onion, if used.
6. Into a small bowl, scoop out the flesh, taking care not to break the skin.
7. Place the potatoes back in the pot and briefly shake dry over heat.
8. Sprinkle with Butter Buds and cover the pot.
9. Let the pot sit this way for 5 minutes.
10. First, mash the potatoes, then gradually switch to a whisk and beat in enough milk to give a good consistency.
