- 2 to 3 garlic cloves (minced)
- 1/2 cup mascarpone cheese (or cream cheese or sour cream)
- 1 cup Half-n-Half, Cream, or Whole Milk
- 2 teaspoons salt
Instructions
- Peel potatoes and cut into pieces. Place in a large pot and cover with water and sprinkle with 1 Tablespoon of Salt. Bring to a boil. Once the potatoes reach a boil, lower the heat to low and cover. Cook for 20-30 minutes or until the potatoes are fork tender. Drain.
- In a small saucepan, heat the butter and 1 cup of half-n-half until butter is melted and warm, about 5 minutes. This can also be done in the microwave in a microwave-safe bowl. If using a microwave, heat for 1 minute or until the butter is melted. Stir in minced garlic and stir.
- Use a potato ricer or potato masher or put potatoes into the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with a paddle attatchment and mix them for 30 seconds to mash the potatoes.
- Slowly add butter and cream mixture, mixing at the lowest speed. Fold in mascarpone cheese and 1 teaspoon of salt. Taste and add additional 1 teaspoon of salt, if needed. f you want the potatoes to be creamier, add 1/2 cup of half-n-half, milk, or cream. Taste and season more if necessary.

Notes
- What can I substitute for mascarpone cheese?
- Since mascarpone cheese is an Italian cream cheese, you can substitute softened full-fat cream cheese.
- You can also substitute full-fat sour cream in these garlic mashed potatoes.
