Steps:
- Melt butter in large stockpot on medium-high heat. Add leeks; cook 5 min. or until tender, stirring frequently. Add potatoes and water; stir. Bring to boil; cover. Simmer on medium-low heat 20 min. or until potatoes are tender, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat.
- Puree with a hand-held blender, right in the stockpot. (Or add, in batches, to a countertop blender; blend until smooth.) Return potato puree to stockpot. Cook on medium heat 5 min. or until heated through, stirring occasionally.
- Add cream cheese and half-and-half; stir. Cook 3 to 5 min. or just until cream cheese is melted and mixture is blended. Stir in pepper. Sprinkle with chives just before serving.
