Ingredients

  • 5 lbs Yukon Gold potatoes
  • 1 tsp kosher salt plus more to taste
  • 1 stick salted butter plus more to top with
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream
  • 5 roasted garlic cloves finely chopped
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1/2 tbsp fresh cracked pepper

Instructions

  • Clean off your potatoes.
  • Peel the potatoes or leave the skin on (I did half and half).
  • Cut them into evenly sized chunks ~1 inch thick. Doesn't need to be perfect but an even cut makes it cook more evenly.
  • Put the cubed potatoes in a large stock pot full of enough water to cover the potatoes.
  • Bring the water to a boil. Reduce the temperature just enough to keep at a boil at 10-12 minutes or until you can pierce the potatoes with a fork easily.
  • Drain all of the water.
  • Add the remaining ingredients and mash the potatoes.
  • ENJOY!
