Number Of Ingredients 6

7 lbs russet potatoes
6 garlic cloves, peeled
6 tablespoons butter, cut into small chunks
3/4-1 cup whipping cream, heated until steaming
salt
white pepper

Steps:

  • In an 8 to 10-quart pan over high heat, bring 1 1/2 quarts of water to a boil.
  • Peel potatoes and cut into 1-inch chunks.
  • Add potatoes and garlic to boiling water; cover and return to a boil, then reduce heat to medium and simmer until potatoes mash easily, 12 to 15 minutes.
  • Drain and pour into the bowl of heavy-duty-electric mixer fitted with a wire whisk, or return to pan.
  • Add butter and 1/2 cup cream. Beat with electric mixer on medium speed, or by hand with a heavy-duty whisk, just until smooth.
