Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with a bit of olive oil or non-stick spray.
Wash the new potatoes thoroughly and cut them into bite-sized pieces, leaving the skins on for added texture and flavor.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the potato pieces, olive oil, minced garlic, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper. Toss well to coat the potatoes evenly.
Transfer the seasoned potatoes to the prepared baking dish, spreading them out into an even layer.
Pour the heavy cream over the potatoes, making sure it spreads evenly throughout the dish.
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese and grated Parmesan cheese evenly over the top of the potatoes.
Cover the dish tightly with aluminum foil and place it in the preheated oven. Bake for 30 minutes.
After 30 minutes, remove the foil and continue baking uncovered for an additional 15 minutes, or until the top is golden and bubbly, and the potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork.
Remove from the oven and let it sit for 5 minutes to set before serving.
Garnish with chopped fresh parsley for a pop of color and additional flavor, if desired. Serve warm and enjoy!
