Ingredients
- 1 large head cauliflower
- 4 tablespoons butter
- 2 ounces cream cheese
- 2 tablespoons heavy cream
- 2 cloves minced garlic
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons chives, chopped, for garnish
Directions
Step 1
Begin by removing the leaves and cutting the cauliflower into florets.
Step 2
Fill a large pot with about 1 inch of water and bring it to a boil over high heat.
Step 3
Add the cauliflower florets to a steamer basket and place over the boiling water. Cover with a lid and steam the cauliflower until it is very tender, about 10-12 minutes.
Step 4
After steaming, allow the cauliflower to cool for a few moments, then transfer it to a food processor.
Step 5
Add the butter, cream cheese, heavy cream, and minced garlic to the food processor.
Step 6
Process the cauliflower mixture until it is smooth and creamy. You may need to pause occasionally to scrape down the sides of the processor.
Step 7
Season the mixture with salt and black pepper, then process again to combine evenly.
Step 8
Transfer the creamy mashed cauliflower to a serving bowl.
Step 9
Garnish with chopped chives, and serve warm.
