I like to call these ‘Christmas Cream Clouds’ because they melt in your mouth and bring holiday cheer with every bite!

There’s something so comforting about coming home to the smell of creamy garlic parmesan potatoes simmering away in the slow cooker. This dish is a lifesaver for busy weekdays when you want something hearty but don’t have the time to hover over the stove. I first stumbled upon this recipe when I was trying to recreate a dish my grandmother used to make. It’s become a staple in our house, especially during the colder months. The creamy, cheesy goodness combined with the tender potatoes makes it a family favorite.

These creamy garlic parmesan potatoes are incredibly versatile. They pair beautifully with a simple grilled chicken or a juicy steak. For a lighter meal, you can serve them alongside a fresh green salad or some steamed veggies. They’re also a hit at potlucks and family gatherings, where they can easily complement a variety of main dishes.

2 pounds of baby potatoes, halved
1 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
