1/2 cup butter, softened
3 tbl. chopped fresh sage
3-1/2 lbs. Yukon Gold potatoes
4 large cloves of garlic, halved
1/4 cup butter, softened
1 (3 oz.) package cream cheese, softened
1-1/4 cups half and half, divided
salt & pepper to taste
Garnish: additional fresh sage
Combine 1/2 cup butter and 3 tbl. sage in a small bowl; stir well. Spoon butter mixture onto a sheet of wax paper. Wrap in wax paper, and chill at least 30 minutes or until slightly firm. Roll butter in wax paper, back and forth, to make a 6 inch log. Chill up to 2 days.
Place potatoes and garlic in a large saucepan; add water to cover. Bring to a boil; reduce heat and simmer 20 minutes or until potatoes are tender. Drain reserving garlic with potatoes. Combine potatoes, garlic, 1/4 cup butter, and cream cheese in a large bowl; mash. Gradually add enough of remaining 1/2 cup half and half until desired consistency.
Unwrap chilled sage butter, and place on a small serving dish. Garnish, if desired and serve with potatoes.
