Ingredients

• 4 cups broccoli florets
• 1 cup heavy cream
• 4 oz cream cheese
• 1.5 cups sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
• 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
• 0.5 teaspoon onion powder
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Step 1: Steam the broccoli florets by placing them in a large saucepan with about an inch of water. Cover with a lid, bring to a simmer, and let it steam for about 5 minutes until the broccoli is just tender. Drain and set aside.

Step 2

Step 2: In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the unsalted butter.

Step 3

Step 3: Stir in the heavy cream and cream cheese, whisking until the cream cheese is fully melted and the mixture is smooth, about 3 minutes.

Step 4

Step 4: Add shredded sharp cheddar cheese and grated Parmesan cheese to the saucepan. Stir constantly until cheeses are fully melted and the sauce is thick and creamy.

Step 5

Step 5: Season the cheese sauce with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to combine.

Step 6

Step 6: Remove the saucepan from heat and add the steamed broccoli to the cheese sauce, stirring gently to coat the broccoli evenly with the sauce.

Step 7

Step 7: Transfer the creamy, cheesy broccoli to a serving dish and serve immediately while warm.
