Let's Get Started
- Preheat the oven to 400°F.
- Cut off the top of each head of garlic, drizzle with olive oil, and wrap in foil. Roast for 45 minutes, or until soft and golden.
- While the garlic is roasting, peel and cut the potatoes into chunks. Place in a large pot and cover with water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer until tender, about 20 minutes.
- Drain the potatoes and return to the pot. Add the butter and heavy cream.
- Squeeze the roasted garlic out of the skins and add to the pot. Mash until smooth and creamy. Season with salt and pepper.
- Serve the mashed potatoes hot, garnished with chopped chives.
