Step 1

Peel the turnips and cut them into evenly sized cubes to ensure even cooking.

Step 2

Place the turnip cubes into a large pot and fill with enough water to cover them by at least an inch.

Drain the turnips thoroughly, and return them to the pot.

Step 5

Add the butter, heavy cream, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper to the pot with the turnips.

Using a potato masher or an immersion blender, mash the turnips until smooth and creamy. Adjust consistency with more heavy cream, if necessary.
