Creamy Cheesy Mashed Potatoes

Ingredients
2 lbs. (about 6 medium) potatoes, peeled and cut into 1-inch chunks

1. Place potatoes in large saucepan. Cover with water; bring to a boil. Cook over medium-high heat for 15 to 20 minutes or until tender; drain.

2. Return potatoes to saucepan; add evaporated milk and butter. Beat with hand-held mixer until smooth. Stir in cheese. Season with salt and pepper.
