 Double Cheese Mashed Potatoes, creamy mashed potatoes with the perfect combination of Mozzarella and Parmesan and then baked. Delicious.

Double Cheese Mashed Potatoes, baked with mozzarella & parmesan cheese, Italian parsley the perfect side dish for Thanksgiving & Christmas.

Baked Double Cheese Mashed Potatoes, these have become one of our favourite baked side dishes. They go great with anything.

I have a husband who is not that crazy about potatoes. He never liked them boiled.

Actually I kind of like the Italian way, warm boiled potatoes tossed with some olive oil and chopped parsley and a sprinkling of salt,  pretty darn good in my opinion!

As long as they are baked and a little crunchy on top he’s happy. And sometimes he has a mad desire for Roast Beef, Yorkshire Pudding and Mashed Potatoes and Gravy!

Since I am always looking for some way to add some of my favourite cheese, Parmesan to recipes I thought why not bake it with some mashed potatoes. This way everyone is happy!

My youngest liked the idea of adding some stretchy cheese, so we decided that adding some firm Mozzarella to the mix would be perfect and the Italian decided some chopped onions wouldn’t be such a bad idea either.

So if you are a mashed potato cheese lover I hope you try out this Baked Double Cheese Mashed Potatoes and let me know if you. Buon Appetito!

      Can I make ahead? If so before baking or after? Thanks

        Hi Linda yes you can make it ahead of time and it is best to freeze it unbaked. Baking it first can change the texture of the dish. Hope you like it.

      This was fantastic! I added some garlic powder to the onion and butter while sautéing. And used some Italian mixed shredded cheese that I had on hand instead of mozzarella . My family said it tasted like steakhouse mashed potatoes and want me to make it at least once a week!
