- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Place garlic heads in a baking dish and drizzle each with 1 tablespoon olive oil.
- Bake in the preheated oven until garlic is soft and brown, about 45 minutes.
- Meanwhile, bring a large pot of water to a boil and stir in sea salt. Cook potatoes in salted water until tender, about 30 minutes. Drain.
- Transfer potatoes to a large bowl; add sour cream, butter, cream cheese, salt, and black pepper. Cover the bowl with a lid or a piece of aluminum foil and let stand to soften butter and cream cheese, about 5 minutes.
