Creamy mashed potatoes infused with roasted garlic and Parmesan cheese, perfect for holidays and family dinners.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 pounds Yukon Gold potatoes, peeled and quartered
  • 8 cloves garlic, unpeeled
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • Salt, to taste
  • Black pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Place the unpeeled garlic cloves on a small baking sheet and roast for 20 minutes, or until softened. Let cool slightly, then squeeze the roasted garlic out of its skins. Mash the garlic with a fork.
  3. While the garlic roasts, place the quartered potatoes in a large pot and cover with cold water. Add a generous pinch of salt. Bring to a boil and cook for 15-20 minutes, or until fork-tender. Drain well.
  4. Return the drained potatoes to the pot. Add the heavy cream, butter, mashed roasted garlic, Parmesan cheese, and milk.
  5. Mash the potatoes with a potato masher or use a hand mixer on low speed until smooth and creamy. Do not overmix.
  6. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
  7. Serve immediately or keep warm.

Notes

  • For make-ahead mashed potatoes, prepare through step 5. Let cool completely, then refrigerate. Reheat gently on the stovetop or in the oven, adding a splash more milk or cream if needed.
  • To keep mashed potatoes warm for a crowd, transfer them to a slow cooker set to the ‘warm’ setting. Stir occasionally.
  • Use Yukon Gold or Russet potatoes for the best creamy texture.
