2. Drain potatoes thoroughly in colander. Return to saucepan; heat over medium-low heat 2 to 3 minutes to dry potatoes, stirring occasionally.

3. In saucepan, mash potatoes with potato masher or beat with electric hand mixer. Stir in butter, truffle oil and 1/2 cup of the hot cream. Add additional cream, a little at a time, if necessary, for desired consistency; beat until light and fluffy. Season to taste with white pepper and additional salt, if desired. Serve immediately.
