Boil potatoes until tender. Drain reserving 1/2 cup of the water. Mash with milk and set aside. Let cool. In a large bowl put 1/2 cup of the warm potato water. Add yeast and let proof. Add potatoes, sugar, sour cream, 2 tablespoons of butter, salt, and honey. Mix well. Add flour until a stiff dough forms. Turn out onto a floured bowl and knead until smooth and elastic. You can also knead in a stand mixer. Place dough in a greased bowl turning to have greased side up. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled. Punch down and divide into 2 pieces. Shape into a loaf and place in a 8x4x2 inch greased pan. Cover and let rise until doubled. Heat oven to 375°F. Brush loaves with butter and bake for 40 to 45 minutes or until golden brown.
