Hasselbacon Potato Bake

Step 2: Prepare the Potatoes
Slice the potatoes Hasselback-style by making thin slices (about 1/8-inch thick) across each potato, leaving the bottom intact so they fan out.
Place the sliced potatoes in a baking dish and brush them with the melted butter, making sure to coat all the slices.
Step 3: Season the Potatoes
Sprinkle the French onion soup mix evenly over the potatoes, allowing it to fall between the slices.
Step 4: Add the Cream and Bacon
Pour heavy cream over the top of the potatoes, ensuring it seeps between the slices.
Sprinkle the crumbled bacon over the potatoes, evenly distributing it on top.
Step 5: Bake the Potatoes
Cover the baking dish with foil and bake for 45 minutes.
After 45 minutes, remove the foil, sprinkle the shredded cheese over the potatoes, and return to the oven.
Bake uncovered for an additional 15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and golden brown and the potatoes are tender.
Step 6: Garnish and Serve
Remove from the oven, garnish with fresh parsley, and serve warm.
