Just make the potatoes the way you usually make them, but toss into the water with the potatoes approximately one garlic clove for every two potatoes. Mash it into the potatoes along with the butter and cream and salt to taste with garlic salt. I like to use red potatoes, and I leave the skins on. My son says his mom makes the best mashed potatoes. When I told him everybody thinks their mom's potatoes are best, he responded, "Well...they're wrong!". Does he know how to get on his mom's good side, or what?

Here is a recipe my friend uses every Christmas for her Pizza Parlor's Christmas party. It is great that you make this in advance.

I usually put my garlic to boil with the potatoes and just mash them with lots of butter and cream or 1/2 and half. It is delicious! If I have left overs, I make them into potato pancakes and serve them with apple sauce when I make pork chops. Yum!

I have used this recipe and my family and grandchildren LOVE it! It is called Slow-Cooked Garlic Smashed Potatoes. It is great because it is cooked and stays hot in a crock pot!

I roast a whole head of garlic first. Cut the top off the head of garlic, no need to peel. Wrap in aluminum foil up to where you cut the head off and drizzle olive oil over the top. Roast at 400 degrees F until the cloves are soft when you squeeze it, usually 20mins. After it cools, you squeeze all the garlic pulp out of the head and stir that into your mashed potatoes. The roasting gives the garlic a wonderful flavor and takes the sharpness and bitterness out of the garlic.
