I like to surf the net for recipes and like many others, I found gorgeous looking photos of a potato that was sliced many times, but not all the way through, baked and covered with gooey cheese. I knew I had to make it.

Hasselback Potatoes

These were AWESOME!!

Very few ingredients.

Cutting enough but not too much is the key.

It takes time to get the butter in-between every slice. Using a brush with melted butter helps.

Out of the oven.

These potatoes outshine even filet mignon!
