  • 2 tablespoons butter

  • Make the Cream Mixture: Pour in the heavy cream, season with salt and pepper, and let it heat until just simmering.
  • Combine and Pour: Pour the creamy mixture over the layered potatoes, evenly distributing it throughout.
  • Add Cheese: Top the dish with shredded cheese, ensuring it’s nicely covered.
