GOBBLE GOBBLE: Garlic Ranch Mashed Potatoes

Hello again! Here is my recipe for the traditional mashed potatoes with a twist. I promise you this will be a crowd pleaser. 

What You Will Need: (This recipe feeds about 6-8 people depends on how much you love mashed potatoes)

1 Package of Powder Ranch Dressing (DO NOT USE THE LIQUID DRESSING)

1/2 Pound of Yukon Gold Potatoes (Russet Potatoes will also work if you can't get Yukon, Yukon potatoes are more buttery and creamery) 

1 Pint of Heavy Cream

1 Cup of Whole Milk (PLEASE DO NOT USE LOWFAT, SKIM ANY SORT OF "DIET" MILK IT WILL NOT TASTE THE SAME TRUST ME)

1 Stick of unsalted butter

1 whole bulb of garlic 

1 small container or sour cream (about 8oz.)

Salt and Black Pepper to taste

How To Make:
1.) Wash and peel your potatoes

2.) Boil your potatoes until fork tender (poke a fork and if it goes through and comes out clean your potatoes are done, do no overcook or undercook)

3.) While the potatoes are boiling wrap your garlic bulb in foil with some olive oil. Broil @ 350 degrees for 5-10 minutes until the garlic is soft. Keep an eye on this

4.) In a sauce pan melt your stick of butter and add the milk. DO NOT BOIL you just want to warm up the milk and melt the butter

5.) Take your potatoes and mash them into chunks

6.) Add your desired amount of garlic 

7.) Add the entire packet of powdered ranch dressing, milk and butter mixture (You do not need to add all the milk and butter, depends on how smooth you want it)

8.) Mix and Stir 

9.) Add the heavy cream (Add only to your desire consistency) and sour cream (must have!!!!)

10.) Taste and add salt and pepper if desired 

ENJOY!!!!

HAPPY THANKSGIVING :D
