Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 cups broccoli florets
- 8 ounces cream cheese (softened)
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 0.5 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 cup crumbled cooked bacon
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Steam the broccoli florets until they are just tender, about 5 minutes. Drain and set aside.
In a medium-sized saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat.
Add the softened cream cheese and stir until smooth and creamy.
Gradually stir in the heavy cream, mixing well to ensure a smooth sauce.
Add the garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Stir to combine.
Mix in 1.5 cups of shredded cheddar cheese and continue stirring until the cheese has melted and the sauce is smooth.
Remove the saucepan from heat and fold in the steamed broccoli florets, ensuring they are fully coated in the cheese sauce.
Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with butter or non-stick spray.
Pour the broccoli and cheese mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly.
Top with the remaining 0.5 cup of shredded cheddar cheese, grated Parmesan, and crumbled bacon.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese on top is melted and bubbly.
Allow the casserole to cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy warm as a delicious side dish or light main course.
