Ingredients
Scale
- 2 lbs Potatoes (Russet or Yukon Gold)
- 1 cup Cheddar Cheese, shredded
- 1 cup Gruyère Cheese, shredded
- 1 cup Heavy Cream
- 4 tbsp Butter
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 medium Onion, diced

- Pepper, to taste
- Fresh herbs (thyme or chives), optional
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Peel and slice the potatoes into even rounds, about a quarter-inch thick.
- In a skillet, melt butter over medium heat, add garlic and onions, sautéing until translucent and fragrant.
