Can You Freeze Mashed Potatoes?
3. Fat Makes Them Freeze Well
Adding plenty of butter and/or cream to mashed potatoes helps to make them so much more delicious. Some might advise against this though because it will add to the calorific value of the mash, making it more fattening than we would like. When freezing mash, there is more of an incentive to forget the calories and add in the butter.
