Instructions

Whip up this irresistible creamy rosemary potato bake that'll steal the show at your next gathering! With tender potato slices smothered in a rich, garlicky cream sauce and topped with golden Parmesan, it's comfort food at its finesteasy to make and impossible to resist.

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Lightly coat the bottom of a 9-by-13-inch baking dish with softened butter.
Using a mandoline or a very sharp knife, thinly slice the potatoes to ensure they cook evenly. Arrange the slices in the baking dish, then sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon salt and some freshly ground black pepper.
In a large skillet set to medium-low heat, melt the butter. Add the garlic and onions, cooking until they become translucent, about 4 minutes, stirring occasionally. Cut the cream cheese bar in half and add it to the pan, stirring constantly until it melts smoothly, roughly 3 minutes. Pour in the half-and-half, stirring to incorporate. Season with 1/2 teaspoon salt and pepper to tastebe generous with the salt. Stir in the rosemary and green onions. Finally, fold in 1/2 cup of the grated Parmesan.
Pour this creamy mixture evenly over the potatoes, making sure to scrape any leftover sauce from the skillet. Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese over the top liberally. Bake the dish until it turns golden and bubbly, at least 1 hour. Allow it to rest for 10 minutes before serving to set.
