(WCCO)
4 Yukon gold potatoes, peeled and cut into chunks
roasted garlic*
4 T. butter
1/2 c. milk
1/2-3/4 c. cheddar cheese, shredded
salt and pepper to taste
Boil potatoes in large saucepan until fork-tender. Drain and return to pan. Squeeze the cooked potatoes through a potato ricer into a bowl.
Melt butter in the milk in the microwave until milk is warm and the butter is melted. Slowly mix the butter mixture and shredded cheese into riced potatoes until desired consistency. Stir in roasted garlic, removed from its peel.
Add salt and pepper to taste. Viola!
* To roast garlic, slice off top of entire garlic bulb. Drizzle with olive oil, wrap loosely in foil, and roast in the oven at 400 until garlic is brown and very soft, about 45 minutes or so.
