Mashed potatoes in the Instant Pot

Recipe taken from Dinner at the Zoo and maybe some others.
Original recipe called for 2 lbs of Russet potatoes, but I could only buy a 5 pound bag and didn't want it to go to waste.  I used it for 3 nights of dinner + 5 lunches - I was mashed potato-ed out by the end of the week.

Ingredients:
-5 lbs of Russet potatoes
-2 cups of water
-2 tsp salt
-1/2 cup of milk/heavy cream/half n half - I used heavy cream and probably used less
-1 stick of butter
-black pepper
-garlic powder

Directions
1. Peel potatoes and cut into similar sized cubes
2. Place potatoes, water, salt in Instant Pot
3. Set on on manual for 10 min
4. When timer goes off, release valve to vent
5. Drain potatoes into colander
6. Add milk, butter, pepper, and garlic powder to Instant Pot
7. Use mixer to mix in the Instant Pot

Notes:
Don't forget to add water when reheating in the microwave.
Could try adding roasted garlic to the mix, but that would be more work.
