Description

They have a little bit of a crisp, very buttery and creamy. The scallions are a must because they give them such great flavor. I am sure you could probably substitute maybe some minced garlic if you like. Yes, they are sinfully delicious, but they are little so they can’t do much damage. Feel free to eat 5 or 6. Really, they are so little, how can it hurt?

Ingredients

  • 8 whole Medium Potatoes
  • 1 stick Butter
  • 1 cup Shredded Cheddar Cheese
  • ½ cups Scallions, Chopped
  • 12 teaspoons Half-and-half
  • Salt And Pepper

Preparation

Pierce potatoes with fork, sprinkle with salt, wrap in damp paper towel and microwave for 15 minutes. Potatoes should be firm. Set aside and let cool till they can be handled, then slice.

Place 1/2 Tbsp pats of butter in each mold of the muffin/cupcake pan, then a slice of potatoes, a pinch of salt and pepper, then cheese and scallions. Repeat layers: potato, salt & pepper, cheese, scallions. (I only did 2 layers, but I suggest going up to 3.) Top each mold with another pat of butter and drizzle each with 1 tsp of half-and-half.

Bake in the oven at 400 degrees for 20 – 25 minutes, until cheese is melted and potatoes are brown.

We loved these! I added bacon bits as a layer with the cheese. Extra yummy.

I made this with some leftover ham from Easter and it was so tasty. I just cubed the ham and placed it in between the layers and substituted the cheddar cheese for pecorino romano. My family loved it and at the whole lot.

These were great, but I agree about the butter. And I actually only used about a 1/4 of a pad on top, and they were still swimming in it. They were a hit, and we ate them all, but the amount of butter left pooled in the bottom was c.r.a.z.y.

these have way too much butter. When I took them out of the pan, there were little pools of butter left in each cup. They are definitely delicious, and I will make again, but I will be halving the butter next time.

Very good! Make sure you cut down on that butter though! Make sure to cook them until that cheese gets crispy, yum!

The family did not review these well. If I were to make them again, I would add some additional spices to “take them up a notch” as we all found them to be lacking in flavor.

So, so good. I did modify a bit but cutting way down on the butter. And I’ve made them with the addition of crumbled bacon – definitely a hit with my husband!

Loved this! A good twist on an old fav. I like to make them in my larger muffin tin. I agree with “TaraBarn”…it’s a little too much butter….kind of greasy when serving, so next time I will do less.

These are decadent! They are moist but not soggy, and so flavorful. They are also so easy that I would let my kids assemble them. I did decrease the butter by about half to trim calories (I know, sacrilege!) and they were still divine. If I were to serve these to company, I would not skimp on the butter!
