Quick-release the pressure by turning the valve to vent. Drain the potatoes and remove them from the Instant Pot.
Mash the potatoes with a fine mesh sieve using the back of a wooden spoon to the desired consistency.
Return the mashed potatoes to the Instant Pot and add 1 tbsp unsalted butter, 2 tbsp heavy cream, 1/4 tsp salt, 1/2 tsp ground black pepper, and 3 tbsp whole milk. Cover with the lid, seal the valve, and set the pot to the “Sauté” setting for 2 minutes.
