Ingredients
Scale
6 Yukon Gold Potatoes
7-8 cloves garlic
1/3 cup milk
1.5 tsp salt, plus more to taste
2 tbsp butter, plus more to taste
Instructions
Wash potatoes and wrap in foil. Cut ends from garlic cloves, and wrap all in one piece of foil. Bake at 350F for 30-45 minutes, or until potatoes are tender. Once cool enough to handle, peel potatoes and garlic, and add both to a large pot on stove. Mash well with a fork*, then add butter, salt and milk, and stir well to incorporate. Cook slowly on low heat at least 5 minutes, stirring often to avoid burning. Taste and adjust salt and butter to preference.
Notes
For extra creamy, smooth potatoes, process baked potatoes using a food mill or blender prior to incorporating butter, salt, and milk on stovetop.
