Cut cauliflower into very small florets and do not use any thick stems. Rinse.
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and add cauliflower. Boil for 10 minutes or until very soft.
Drain the cauliflower very well from the water, squeezing out the water through a cheese cloth.
In a bowl combine the cream cheese, butter, heavy cream, salt, pepper and garlic.
Using a potato masher, mash like you are making mashed potatoes. Add more heavy cream if needed, depending on your personal preference.
Top with chives. Serve.
