Steps:
- 1. First we need to roast our Garlic so preheat the oven to 400 degrees. 2. Remove all the loose "paper like" outer layers from the Garlic bulb. Cut the top end off the Garlic Bulb. 3. Drizzle Olive Oil over the top of the Garlic Bulbs. Wrap the Garlic in foil and place in the preheated oven and roast for 40 minutes. 4. When Garlic is done roasting, remove from oven and set aside to cool so it will be easy to handle. 5. Wash and peel 6 large Sweet Potatoes. 6. In a large pot, bring about 4 quarts of Water to a boil. Then add in the Sweet Potatoes and return to a slow boil. Continue to boil them just until fork tender. 7. Drain the Potatoes and return them to the pot. 8. Add in the Butter, and Cream Cheese and mash well with a potato masher. 9. Give the old Pepper Mill a few turns over the Potatoes and Squeeze the Roasted Garlic from the bulbs into the Potatoes. Continue to mash them until everything is incorporated. 10. Once you have a nice Mashed Potato consistency you are ready to serve! ~Serve with a dollop of Sour Cream on top or a little more Butter. If you have some fresh Chives they would look great on top for a little garnish as well. I always have them in my garden and I would have added them on top....but I live in Minnesota and it is wintertime and snowing! -Enjoy! Recipe by: Hot Dish Homemaker

Steps:
- Preheat an oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
- Prick the sweet potatoes with a fork or the tip of a paring knife; set aside. Cut off the top of the heads of garlic to expose the cloves, trimming about 1/4 inch off of the top of each clove. You may need to trim individual cloves along the sides of each head. Brush the cut cloves with the olive oil, then nestle each head into a piece of aluminum foil.
- Place the sweet potatoes and garlic cloves directly on the oven racks. Bake for about 1 hour, removing the sweet potatoes once they have softened, and removing the garlic heads once they are tender and nicely browned.
- Peel the sweet potatoes, and place into a mixing bowl. Squeeze the individual garlic cloves into the bowl, then add the butter, sour cream, cream cheese, and cayenne pepper. Mash until smooth, then season to taste with salt and pepper. Scrape the mashed potatoes into a 1 1/2 quart baking dish, and return to the oven for about 15 minutes to reheat.

MASHED SWEET POTATOES WITH ROASTED GARLIC
There's no reason we can't treat sweet potatoes like regular potatoes, meaning mashing them with butter, cream and lots of salt. Roasting sweet potatoes in the oven - individually wrapped in foil to help them steam - is not just a hands-off way to cook them by avoiding large pots of boiling water, it also concentrates their flavor. Roasted garlic is an easy addition here; since the potatoes already need an hour's worth of oven time, the garlic can cook alongside. The mellowed, caramelized garlic cloves are then smashed into the silky spuds, creating a minimalist yet rich and savory side dish. Make this the night before and reheat it in a buttered casserole dish in the oven - or even in the microwave - with a couple of extra pats of butter on top, right before eating.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 350 degrees. Turn the garlic head on its side and carefully cut off the very top end to expose the cloves. (Discard the top.) Place the head of garlic on a sheet of foil, cut side up, and drizzle with the oil and season with salt and pepper. Wrap tightly and place on a sheet pan. Wrap each sweet potato individually in foil and place on the pan alongside the garlic.
- Bake until the sweet potatoes are tender and the garlic is soft, fragrant and slightly caramelized, about 1 hour. Set aside, still wrapped, to cool slightly.
- Meanwhile, heat the cream and butter in the microwave in 30-second intervals, checking after each, until the butter is melted, about 1 minute. (Alternatively, you can heat the cream and butter in a small saucepan over medium until the butter is melted.)
- Unwrap the sweet potatoes and peel them, discarding the skin and adding the flesh to a large bowl. Squeeze the garlic head, cut side down, into the bowl to release the roasted cloves. Pour in the hot cream and butter. Using a whisk or fork, break up the potatoes and garlic and vigorously stir until smooth and fluffy, at least 30 seconds. Taste for seasoning, adjusting with salt and pepper as needed. Transfer to a serving bowl and serve warm. (To make ahead, transfer to a buttered casserole dish or cake pan, cover and refrigerate for up to 24 hours, until ready to eat. Bake in a 350-degree oven or microwave until heated through, about 15 minutes. On Thanksgiving, you should reheat this when the turkey is out of the oven and resting.)

Steps:
- Roasted Garlic: To roast a head of garlic, first slice off top of head, (about 1/4 inch off top), place on a square of tinfoil that will cover whole head, drizzle top with olive oil, or whatever oil you have on hand, sprinkle with salt and wrap tightly. Place on/in oven proof pan/dish and bake at 350 deg. for 45 min - 1 hours Remove from oven, let cool.
- Mash: Peel and cube Sweet potatoes and potatoes, (about 3/4 - 1 inch cubes). place in pot and cover with water. Salt water generously. Bring to a boil and reduce heat. Once you can pierce cubes with fork easily, they are done, (15 min approx). Drain water and mash cubes. Add butter, milk and salt and pepper. Add roaster garlic by either removing each clove and adding it to pot, or, if head is cool enough, squeeze head into pot and cloves should squish right out. mash and stir once more. Texture should be smooth. Add more milk if you like it creamier.
Tips:
- To easily roast the garlic, cut off the top of the garlic head, drizzle with olive oil, and wrap in foil. Roast at 400°F for 45 minutes, or until the cloves are soft and caramelized.
- For a creamier texture, use a potato ricer to mash the potatoes and garlic.
- If you don't have a potato ricer, you can mash the potatoes and garlic with a fork or potato masher. Just be sure to mash them until they are smooth and creamy.
- Add your favorite seasonings to the mashed potatoes. Some good options include salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, and cayenne pepper.
- For a healthier version of this dish, use low-fat sour cream or Greek yogurt instead of butter.
