Ingredients
- 2 pounds Potatoes (Yukon Gold or Red)
- 3 tablespoons Butter
- 4 cloves Garlic (minced)
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black Pepper
- 1 tablespoon Fresh Thyme (chopped)
- 1 tablespoon Fresh Rosemary (chopped)
- 1 cup Heavy Cream
- 1.5 cups Cheddar Cheese (shredded)
- 0.5 cup Parmesan Cheese (grated)
- 2 tablespoons Fresh Parsley (for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
Wash and scrub the potatoes thoroughly. Peel if desired and cut into 1-inch cubes.
Step 2
Spray the inside of your crock pot with non-stick cooking spray or lightly grease it with butter.
Step 3
Add the diced potatoes to the crock pot.
Step 4
Melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat, then stir in the minced garlic, salt, black pepper, thyme, and rosemary. Cook for about 1 minute until fragrant.
Step 5
Pour the butter and garlic herb mixture over the potatoes in the crock pot. Toss to coat the potatoes evenly.
Step 6
Pour the heavy cream over the potatoes. Gently stir to combine.
Step 7
Cover the crock pot with the lid and cook on HIGH for 3 to 4 hours or LOW for 6 to 8 hours, until the potatoes are tender.
Step 8
Once the potatoes are tender, sprinkle the cheddar cheese and Parmesan cheese evenly over the top. Cover again and cook for an additional 10-15 minutes until the cheese has melted.
Step 9
Stir the melted cheese into the potatoes if desired or leave it as a cheesy top layer.
Step 10
Garnish with fresh parsley before serving. Serve warm as a side dish or enjoy on its own!
