Garlic Parmesan Mashed Potatoes at Chef Mickey's - Disney's Contemporary Resort

When I saw the mashed potatoes on the buffet at Chef Mickey's for the first time, I thought, well these look unassuming. They'll likely be adequate, but nothing special to write home about.  Boy how wrong was I!  When I tried the mashed potatoes I realized just how glorious they were! These potatoes were simply incredible; with the perfect flavor of garlic and cheese.  (I LOVE garlic!) I was going to have figure out how to make them at home.
