Roast potatoes: Place potatoes and garlic cloves on a baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Roast for 45 minutes, or until potatoes are tender.
Mash potatoes: Mash roasted potatoes and garlic cloves together.
Add dairy: Stir in butter, milk, and heavy cream. Mash until smooth and creamy.
Season: Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Tips:
For a richer flavor, use a combination of russet and Yukon Gold potatoes.
For a creamier texture, use heavy cream instead of milk.
To add a touch of sweetness, add a teaspoon of honey or maple syrup.
