Step 1
Peel the Yukon Gold potatoes and cut them into 1-inch cubes.
Step 2
Place the potato cubes in a large pot and cover with cold water. Add a pinch of salt to the water.
Step 3
Bring the pot to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook for 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes are fork-tender.

While the potatoes are cooking, gently heat the heavy cream and butter in a small saucepan over low heat until the butter is melted. Do not boil.

Once the potatoes are cooked, drain them in a colander and return them to the pot.
Step 6
Mash the potatoes using a potato masher, ricer, or hand mixer until smooth.
Step 7
Slowly mix in the warm cream and butter mixture, stirring until the potatoes are creamy and fully incorporated.
Step 8
Add the truffle oil, salt, and black pepper to the mashed potatoes. Mix well to evenly distribute the flavors.
Step 9
Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary, adding more salt, pepper, or truffle oil according to your preference.
Step 10
Transfer the mashed potatoes to a serving dish. If desired, garnish with freshly chopped chives for a pop of color and flavor.
Step 11
Serve hot alongside your favorite main dish and enjoy!
