Time 1h39m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

butter
12 russet potatoes, thinly sliced
salt and pepper
2 cups mild cheddar cheese, divided (shredded)
1 pint heavy whipping cream
3 garlic cloves, whole, peeled
1 teaspoon chicken flavor instant bouillon (optional)

Steps:

  • Start by preheating your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Llightly butter a 13x9 inch pan so the potatoes won't stick.
  • Cut your potatoes into very thin slices (width wise).
  • Organize half of the potatoes in the pan.
  • Sprinkle salt and pepper on potatoes to taste (I use about 3/4 teaspoon of pepper and 1/2 teaspoon salt).
  • Add a layer of cheese (1 cup ).
  • Peel 3 cloves of garlic (but leave them whole).
  • In a small sauté pan add 1 pint of heavy whipping cream, the 3 whole garlic cloves, and 1 teaspoon of chicken flavor bouillon (the bouillon is optional but I always add it.).
  • Evenly add the second layer of potatoes.
  • Add salt and pepper (same amount).
  • Add the rest of the cheese (1 cup).
  • Once the heavy whipping cream mixture comes to a boil REMOVE the 3 garlic cloves; pour mixture evenly over the potatoes.
  • Bake for approximately 1 hour and 20 minutes.
  • Enjoy !
