Serves: 4-6

INGREDIENTS

• 3 lbs Yukon gold potatoes, peeled and cut into quarters
• 4 cloves roasted garlic
• 1 cup half and half
• 1 tsp salt
• ½ tsp freshly cracked black pepper
• 4 tablespoon butter

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Add to a large pot all potatoes. Fill with water until the water level is 3 or 4 inches above potatoes.
2. Put the pot over high heat and allow to come to a rolling boil. Boil until potatoes are fork tender, about 20 mins.
3. Drain potatoes well (too much water left in mashed potatoes can make them gummy)
4. Add to a medium bowl, cooked potatoes, garlic cloves, butter, salt and pepper.
5. With hand mixer on lowest speed, mix potatoes and add-ins together until the biggest chunks are about 1" in diameter.
6. Slowly drizzle half & half into potatoes while continuing to mix on low speed. Allow the potatoes to have a few small chunks in them so they don't get over-mixed.
7. OPTIONAL: garnish with a pat of butter and chives.

*Nutrition information is for roughly 3/4 cup mashed potatoes*
