Ingredients

• 1 head Cauliflower florets
• 3 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 2 tablespoons Heavy cream
• 2 tablespoons Cream cheese
• 2 cloves Garlic, minced
• 1 cup Parmesan cheese, shredded
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Chives, chopped (optional for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Cut the cauliflower into evenly sized florets and wash thoroughly under cool water.

Step 2

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the cauliflower florets and cook for about 10-12 minutes or until fork-tender. Drain thoroughly and set aside.

Step 3

In a pan over medium heat, melt 2 tablespoons of butter. Sauté the minced garlic for 1-2 minutes until fragrant but not browned.

Step 4

In a high-powered blender or food processor, combine the cooked cauliflower, sautéed garlic, heavy cream, cream cheese, and the remaining tablespoon of butter. Blend until smooth and creamy.

Step 5

Transfer the cauliflower mixture to a medium-sized bowl and stir in the shredded Parmesan cheese, salt, and black pepper. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.

Step 6

Optional: To add a golden crust, transfer the mixture to a small oven-safe dish, sprinkle additional Parmesan on top, and broil for 2-4 minutes until lightly browned.

Step 7

Serve hot, garnished with fresh chopped chives if desired. Enjoy your luxurious Low Carb Fauxtatoes Cauliflower Deluxe!
