- Return potatoes to the pot and mash until mostly smooth (some small lumps are okay).
- Add softened cream cheese and butter to the potatoes.
- Beat with an electric mixer until the cream cheese and butter are completely melted and incorporated.
- Stir in sour cream until smooth.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, salt, and pepper.
- Add the egg mixture to the potato mixture and beat until light and fluffy.
- Stir in the chopped onion.
- Pour the mashed potato mixture into a greased 9x13 inch baking dish.
- Sprinkle the top with paprika.
- Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight.
- Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 60-75 minutes, or until heated through and lightly browned on top.
