1
Peel and Cut
Peel the Yukon Gold potatoes and cut them into quarters. This helps them cook evenly.
2
Boil Potatoes
Place the cut potatoes in a large pot and cover them with cold water. Add 1 tsp of salt. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
3
Cook Until Tender
Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium and let the potatoes cook for about 15-20 minutes, or until they are fork-tender.

4
Mince Garlic
While the potatoes are boiling, peel and mince the garlic cloves.
5
Sauté Garlic
In a small pan, melt 4 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant but not browned.

6
Drain Potatoes
Once the potatoes are cooked, drain them in a colander and return them to the pot.
7
Mash Potatoes
Use a potato masher or fork to mash the potatoes until smooth.
8
Add Ingredients
Pour in the sautéed garlic (with the butter), heavy cream, and shredded white cheddar cheese. Sprinkle in the black pepper.
9
Mix Until Smooth
Stir everything together until well combined and creamy. Adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper to taste.
