if the milk/butter seems to be seeping out of the potatoes, try re-emulsifying the mixture, just stir it back together

microwave might do some funny shit to the starch in the potatoes loosening the mixture

honestly puzzled on this one. if you've made this recipe before and it's behaving weirdly i have no idea maybe the ratios were off?

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
