Cook Time40 Minutes
Ingredients
1 (2 lbs) pkg Bob Evans® Family Size Original Mashed Potatoes
5 medium red potatoes, peeled
1/2 cup heavy cream
1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
1/2 cup parmesan cheese
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
Directions
- Preheat oven to 400° F. Grease a 9 x 9 baking dish. Spread the mashed potatoes into an even layer across the dish. Set aside.
- Using a mandoline, slice the potatoes into thin circles. Bring a pot of water to a boil. Add potato slices, and boil for 5 minutes. Spread out the slices in a single layer on paper towels. Pat dry for 1 to 2 minutes or until most of the surface moisture is removed. (Don’t let the potatoes sit too long, or they might stick together.) Layer the slices neatly in overlapping rows across the mashed potatoes.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, heat the heavy cream for 30 seconds or until warm. Add the melted butter until combined. Spoon the mixture over the potatoes. Add the cheese. Season with salt and pepper.
- Bake for 40 minutes. Let rest for 15 minutes before serving.
