Ingredients:  
4 russet potatoes, peeled and diced
1/2 cup heavy cream

1/4 cup diced chives

Directions:
Place diced potatoes in a large pot of salted water. Set heat to high. Boil uncovered until potatoes are fork tender. Drain; put in a large bowl and set aside. Remove roasted garlic cloves and mash with a fork to make a paste. Set aside.
Add heavy cream, butter, kosher salt, ground pepper, and Cheddar cheese to potatoes. Mash with a potato masher or a fork. Add roasted garlic paste, bacon, sweet corn and chives. Fold in gently. Serve with more chives sprinkled on top.

Rookie's Notes: Mashed potato-making tips: Make sure the diced potatoes are relatively the same size so they will cook evenly. When adding salt to the cooked potatoes, add it a little at a time. You can always put in more salt, but you can't take it out. Do NOT over-mix the potatoes. Over-mixing mashed potatoes turns them into sticky mush.
