Mashed potatoes are wonderful, but garlic mashed potatoes are even better. Especially if you have a tasty recipe, and lucky for you, we have great garlic mashed potato recipe from the Food Network that will leave your Thanksgiving guest racing back to the kitchen for more.

Ingredients
6 pounds of peeled potatoes
1 cup heavy cream
1/4 cup of unsalted butter
4 cloves of garlic
3 sprigs of thyme
2 tablespoons of diced chives
Kosher salt
Ground black pepper
 

Cut your potatoes place them in a large pot filled with cold water and salt. Let it come to a boil and then simmer the heat for about 30 minutes or until the potatoes are fully cooked (you can test them with a fork).

Next mix the cream, butter, garlic, and thyme into a separate sauce pan.  Move back to the potatoes and mash to your favorite consistency. Now slowly add in the cooked cream mixture and whisk until the potatoes begin to fluff up. Season with salt and pepper to your liking and finish everything off by adding in the chives.
