  • 2 cups heavy cream
  • 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
  • 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.

  3. In a saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat and add the minced garlic; cook for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
  4. Pour in the heavy cream, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and dried thyme (if using) into the saucepan; stir and simmer for 3-4 minutes.
