Ingredients

2 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
4-5 large russet potatoes, washed
1 cup heavy whipping cream
½ cup whole milk
2 tablespoons flour
2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon pepper
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 shallot, minced
1 tablespoon freshly chopped parsley
¾ cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese, divided
¾ cup shredded parmesan cheese, divided
Fresh parsley for garnish

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.
