Gather all the necessary ingredients for the recipe.
Place the potatoes in a large pot and cover them with water. Bring the water to a boil and cook the potatoes until they are easily pierced with a fork, approximately 20 minutes. Then, drain the water completely.
Add the butter to the cooked potatoes in the pot. Use a potato masher, ricer, or electric mixer to mash the potatoes until they reach a smooth and creamy consistency. Gradually incorporate the heavy cream, mixing until everything is thoroughly combined. Season generously with salt and pepper to taste. Serve immediately while hot.
