Ingredients:  
Ingredients:  
3 pounds Yukon gold potatoes, peeled and cut into 1-inch cubes
1/4 cup unsalted butter
2 shallots, diced
3 cloves garlic, minced
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
2 cups chicken stock
3/4 cup heavy cream
2 cups shredded white cheddar cheese, divided
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives

Directions:
Directions:
Place potatoes in a large stockpot or Dutch oven; cover with cold salted water. Bring to a boil; reduce heat, cover and simmer until potatoes are tender, about 5 minutes. Drain well; set aside.

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Lightly oil a 9 x 13 baking dish or coat with nonstick spray.

Melt butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add garlic and shallot, and cook, stirring frequently, until tender, about 3-4 minutes.

Whisk in flour until lightly browned, about 1 minute. Gradually whisk in chicken stock and heavy cream. Bring to a boil; reduce heat and simmer, stirring constantly, until reduced and thickened, about 5 minutes.

Remove from heat; stir in 3/4 cup white cheddar cheese and mustard. Stir in potatoes; season with salt and pepper, to taste.

Spread potato mixture into the prepared baking dish. Place into oven and bake until potatoes are tender and mixture has thickened, about 35-40 minutes.

Sprinkle with remaining 1 1/4 cups white cheddar cheese. Place into oven and broil until golden brown, about 3 minutes. Let stand 5 minutes.

Serve immediately, garnished with chives, if desired.

Personal Notes:
Personal Notes:
This disk is real comfort food. Top with some bacon or caramelized onions and mushrooms to add some extra flavor.

This works well with a chicken breast or salmon, a good salad, and a glass of white wine.
