Ingredients

  • 8 large potatoes, peeled and cubed (I used a combination of Klondike Rose and Klondike Gold potatoes)
  • 8 ounces cream cheese
  • 2 -3 tablespoons butter
  • 2 -3 cups chopped ham
  • salt
  • black pepper
  • white pepper
  • dill

Method

  • Boil potatoes in large pot with enough water to cover potatoes and have a little extra. (I used an eight-quart pot.)
  • When potatoes are tender, drain about 2/3 of the water, leaving some in the pot.
  • Add cubed cream cheese and butter.
  • Cover and allow cream cheese and butter to soften.
  • Combine with potatoes and remaining water, mashing some of the potato cubes to thicken the soup.
  • Add chopped ham.
  • Season with salt, black pepper, white pepper and dill to taste (I used about 1/2 T. dill, and found that that gave it a good flavor).
  • Serve immediately.
