How to Make Potato Blue Cheese And Mushroom Bake

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Butter a 13x9x2 inch baking dish.
  3. In a medium bowl, combine 8 ounces of crumbled blue cheese and 1/2 cup heavy cream.
  4. Mash the cheese mixture to a chunky paste. Stir in 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Add the remaining 1/2 cup heavy cream.
  5. Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet over medium heat.
  6. Add 1 pound of sliced mushrooms and 1 tablespoon of fresh thyme leaves (or 1 teaspoon dried).
  7. Sauté until mushrooms are tender and most of the liquid has evaporated, about 8-10 minutes.
  8. Peel and thinly slice 2 pounds of Yukon Gold potatoes.
  9. Arrange half of the potatoes in the prepared baking dish.
  10. Spoon 3/4 cup of the blue cheese sauce evenly over the potatoes.
  11. Top with the entire mushroom mixture.
  12. Add another 3/4 cup of the blue cheese sauce.
  13. Layer with the remaining potatoes.
  14. Pour the remaining blue cheese sauce over the top.
  15. Cover the dish with foil.
  16. Bake for 30 minutes.
  17. Remove the foil and bake for another 30-35 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and the topping is golden brown.
  18. Let stand for 10 minutes before serving.
