Peel and cut the Yukon Gold potatoes into evenly sized chunks—approximately 1.5-inch pieces for even cooking.
Place the potato chunks into a large pot, cover them with cold water, and add 1 teaspoon of salt. Bring the water to a boil over high heat, then reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes are fork-tender.
While the potatoes are cooking, melt 4 tablespoons of the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant but not browned. Stir in the heavy cream and heat until warmed through. Remove from heat and set aside.
Once the potatoes are tender, drain them well and return them to the pot. Let the potatoes sit in the pot over low heat for 1-2 minutes, stirring occasionally, to help evaporate any excess water.
Use a potato masher or a ricer to mash the potatoes until smooth (or your desired texture). Avoid overmixing to prevent a gummy texture.
Add the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter, the warm garlic-infused cream mixture, and the cream cheese to the mashed potatoes. Stir gently until everything is melted and well incorporated.
Season the mashed potatoes with the remaining 0.5 teaspoon of salt and the black pepper. Taste and adjust the seasoning if needed.
Transfer the mashed potatoes to a serving bowl. Garnish with chopped fresh chives for a pop of color and flavor.
Serve immediately and bask in the deliciousness that will undoubtedly impress everyone at the table.
