Add quartered potatoes to a large pot and cover with well salted cold water. Bring to a boil; reduce to a simmer; cook until tender, about 25 minutes. Drain well.
Add butter, shallots and milk to the same pot the potatoes were cooked in; heat until butter is melted and hot; season well with salt and pepper; remove from the heat.
Add the potatoes to the hot milk mixture; add sour cream. Mash the potatoes until semi-smooth. Add cheese; stir until cheese is incorporated. Adjust the seasoning as necessary.
Add 1 T. butter to the top, garnish with a few chopped chives.
