flaflwrgrl was trying to locate a recipe online and couldn't find it - she can't locate the recipe from her move. Lovemyhouse was able to locate it for her and made her so happy - so I will post it here for safekeeping!
After Debra posted the recipe she found, Ann replied "BTW, on that recipe, I only ever made 1/2 the recipe. My goodness, if you made the whole thing you could feed an Army! To 1/2 the recipe as far as potatoes are concerned --- I think mine specifies 6 large potatoes = 3 lbs. so I would just do 3 potatoes.
And it's just as the title says --- fluffy, the potatoes come out so light & fluffy & with a different flavor from mashed potatoes & that nice bit of crispy on top. YUM!"

Found this one, Ann. It is a Better Homes and Gardens from the citation. Is it close?
