heavy cream instead of milk and cream cheese. and after you drain the water off the potatoes keep cooking them for a few minutes to get rid of extra moisture

all you need is heavy cream, butter, salt, pepper, and garlic/onion powder. you can add cheddar cheese if you want a cheesy flavor. you asked for the solution and i gave it to you! enjoy your soupy potatoes
