Can a broken potato puree be fixed? During the final step when I was whisking the sieved baked potatoes into the potato juice-butter mixture the butter separated from the potato. I believe this was the result of the potato juice-butter mixture that was too hot.

Try adding a couple of tablespoons of cream, slowly, while whisking. You could also drain the fat and slowly drizzle in butter on the stove top. Another option might be to use egg yolk as an emulsifier.
