Ingredients

2 heads garlic, separated into cloves and peeled
1 tablespoon olive oil
4 pounds potatoes, peeled and cut into chunks
½ cup half-and-half
4 tablespoons butter, melted
½ (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
¼ cup sour cream
salt and ground white pepper to taste

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Place garlic cloves in aluminum foil and drizzle with olive oil.
Roast in the preheated oven until very soft, about 25 minutes.
Meanwhile, place potatoes into a large pot and cover with salted water; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until tender, about 20 minutes. Drain.
Mix potatoes, half-and-half, and melted butter until well combined. Add cream cheese, sour cream, and roasted garlic; mix with a hand mixer until well blended. Season with salt and pepper.
