Description

Garlic Parmesan Duchess Potatoes are a creamy and flavorful twist on classic mashed potatoes, perfectly baked to a golden finish, ideal for any occasion.

Ingredients

Scale

2 1/2 lbs Yukon gold potatoes

peeled and diced into 1 1/2-inch portions

Salt and freshly ground black pepper

6 Tbsp butter

divided

4 cloves garlic

finely minced

3 – 4 Tbsp half and half

1/2 cup (slightly packed) finely shredded parmesan cheese

4 large egg yolks

Minced fresh parsley

for garnish (optional)

Finely grated parmesan

for serving (optional)

Instructions

In a large pot, add the diced Yukon gold potatoes and cover with cold water. Season with salt and bring to a boil over high heat. Cook until the potatoes are tender, about 15-20 minutes.
Drain the potatoes and return them to the pot. Add 4 tablespoons of butter and the minced garlic, mashing everything together until smooth.
Mix in the half and half, parmesan cheese, and egg yolks, stirring until well combined. Season with additional salt and pepper to taste.
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Transfer the potato mixture to a piping bag or use two spoons to shape them into mounds on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Melt the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter and brush it over the tops of the shaped potatoes. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until they are golden brown.
Serve warm, garnished with minced parsley and additional parmesan cheese if desired.

Notes

For extra flair, use a star-shaped piping tip to create beautiful duxelles. These are best served fresh out of the oven.
