What you need
  1. 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted, divided, plus 1/2 cup (1 stick), cut into 1-inch cubes, room temperature
  2. 2 1/2 pounds russet potatoes, peeled, cut into 2-inch pieces
  3. Kosher salt
  4. 4 ounces cream cheese, cut into 1-inch cubes, room temperature
  5. 2 tablespoons prepared horseradish
  6. 2/3 cup whole milk, warmed
  7. Freshly ground black pepper
  8. 1 bunch scallions, white and pale-green parts only, minced (about 2/3 cup loosely packed)
  9. Hungarian sweet paprika
What you do
  1. Brush an 8x8x2-inch or other 6-cup baking dish with 1 tablespoon melted butter.
  2. Place potatoes in a large pot and add cold water to cover by 1-inch.
  3. Add a large pinch of salt; bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low.
  4. Cover with lid slightly ajar and gently simmer until potatoes are tender, about 20 minutes.
  5. Drain potatoes; return to same pot.
  6. Shake and stir with a wooden spoon over very low heat until dry.
  7. Then, using a potato masher, mash coarsely. Using a hand mixer, beat 1/2 cup butter into potatoes, a few pieces at a time, until blended.
  8. Beat in cream cheese, adding a few pieces at a time, then horseradish.
  9. With motor running, gradually add milk, beating until potatoes are light and fluffy, 4-5 minutes.
  10. Season well with salt and pepper.
  11. Stir in scallions.
  12. Scrape potatoes into prepared dish.
  13. Use a spatula to create peaks across the surface.
  14. Drizzle potatoes with remaining 1 tablespoon melted butter and sprinkle with paprika.
DO AHEAD
  1. Potatoes can be made 1 day ahead. Let stand at room temperature to cool. Cover and chill.
  2. Preheat oven to 350°.
  3. Bake potatoes, uncovered, until they are heated through and top is golden, about 40 minutes (if chilled, add 10 minutes).
