  2. Return the potatoes to the pot, and mash with the black pepper, salt, butter, chipotle peppers, and garlic until smooth. Fold in the Cheddar cheeses, mayonnaise, heavy cream, and cilantro until the cheeses have melted.

Recipe Note

I created this recipe to go along with some habanero glazed chicken and fell in love with the spicy flavors and creamy texture.
