Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Grease a 9 x 13 inch baking dish with the softened butter.
- Scrub the potatoes thoroughly and thinly slice them. Use a mandolin if you have one.
- In a large bowl combine the whipping cream, milk, four, salt, pepper, minced garlic and shallot, parsley, ½ cup of the cheddar cheese and ½ cup of the parmesan cheese. Whisk the ingredients together.
- Add the sliced potatoes then stir to evenly coat all the potatoes.
- Add the cream coated potatoes to the butter lined baking dish. Arrange them in a uniform side-lying stack, filling the pan completely.
- Pour any excess cream mixture over the top of the potatoes. Sprinkle the remaining ¼ cup of cheddar and ¼ cup parmesan cheese on top of the potatoes.
- Cover the baking dish in foil and bake for 30 minutes. Remove the foil and bake uncovered for 20-30 minutes.
- When the potatoes are finished baking, remove them from the oven. Allow them to rest for at least 20 minutes before garnishing and serving.
