Directions:
Cut pointed end off of garlic, place on a piece of aluminum foil. Fold foil to form a sealed packet. Bake at 400 degrees for 1 hour and let cool for ten minutes. Open packet, squeeze pulp from garlic and set aside.

Bring potatoes to a boil with enough water to cover in a large Dutch oven. Remove and drain. Return to pan and heat 3-5 minutes over low heat until potatoes are dry. Set aside.

Heat cream in a small sauce pan over low heat for 4 minutes or until just warm. Remove from heat and stir in sour cream.

Press potatoes through a ricer or mash using a potato masher. Do not use a mixer or you get a pasty mixture.

Stir in garlic pulp, melted butter, salt and pepper until blended. Gradually stir in warm whipping cream mixture, stirring just until blended.

Serve immediately.
