They are rich, but oh so good! You can vary the cheeses according to taste and add onions, too. I originally got the recipe from AllRecipes, but I have altered a couple of things that helped the recipe we believe. It is a family favorite!

SERVES 6 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

Directions

  1. 1
    Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (165 degrees C).
  2. 2
    Grease a 1 1/2 quart or larger casserole dish with butter or nonstick spray.
  3. 3
    Layer half of the potato slices in the bottom of the casserole dish.
  4. 4
    Dot with half of the butter cut or pinched into small pieces.
  5. 5
    Arrange half of the garlic slices over the potatoes, then pour half of the heavy cream over.
  6. 6
    Sprinkle one cup of Cheddar cheese over the layer, and season with salt and pepper. Repeat layering of potatoes, butter, garlic, cream and Cheddar cheese, then top with the slices of provolone cheese.
  7. 7
    Season again with salt and pepper. Cover with foil that the underside has been sprayed with cooking spray.
  8. 8
    Bake for 1 hour in the preheated oven, then sprinkle the Parmesan or Romano cheese over the top.
  9. 9
    This will create a semi-hard cheese crust. Continue baking uncovered for another 30 minutes, or until potatoes are tender when tested with a fork.

These went so great with one of my new favorite dishes, Mama's Bar-B-Que (Barbecue) Chicken. I loved the creaminess and wonderful flavors of the cheese and garlic! I used the Parmesan cheese this time. These will be enjoyed again! Thanks for sharing it!

    Rich,creamy,cheesy and completely decadent...oh yes,and absolutely gorgeous!You can't go wrong with this combination of flavours and ingredients..it's fantastic. I left the skin on my potato (why waste goodness) and sliced very thinly by hand.I subbed mozzarella for Provolone,as I can't get hold of it,and used romano for the topping..I cooked mine for about 15 minutes longer than stated,and it was perfect.The crust was beautifully crisp,giving way to creamy,garlicky,soft potato. Definately not for those watching their waistlines-a real treat! Thanks Sweetslady for a real winner!

    OHHHHHHH my goodness, these potatoes are FANTASTIC!!!!!! Was looking for a scalloped potatoes recipe to go with my Pork Roast. These were over the top. My DH and I agreed that this might kill us but we would die happy Sometimes you just have to treat yourself. Didn't have any any heavy cream so got on the internet and found that 3/4 cup milk plus 1/3 cup melted butter equaled 1 cup heavy cream. Because of the butter in the heavy cream I left out step #4. This recipe is a real keeper.

    I made these for Fall Pick a Chef (PAC. I didn't have enough cream, so I used about 3/4 cup and the rest I substituted with plain ole milk whisked with 1 TB of cornstarch. I believe I could've used even less without sacrificing either texture or taste. One of the pictures that I will post will show that my potatoes were sliced the thickness of a nickel. Sliced that thick, they took 2 hours to cook. Had they been more the thickness of a dime they would've been tender within the expected time. I used peeled baking potatoes. 1 1/2 pounds worth were 4 medium potatoes about 4 inches in length and 2 inches wide. The liquid makes the potatoes hard to cut into any discernable shape when hot so cutting them cold before reheating resulted in a much nicer presentation on the plate! I liked the way the parmesan made a nice crispy crust on top of the potatoes, but was quite a strong flavor in the end. I would like to try this with mostly the alternate ingredient romano then a nice sprinkle of parmesan. That way, the flavor is more mellow and yet the crust will still be pleasing in texture. The garlic flavor was very pronounced in this recipe and we like that, but I would also like to use my microwave roasted garlic in this for a more mellow alternative. The provolone cheese was definately a nice touch. Thank you Sherry, for posting.
