We decided to broil ours at the end to get that nice crispy exterior while still keeping the melty, creamy interiors, but basically these are impossible to mess up. They’re so, so yummy, and the fact that we can feed a crowd with this one, easy recipe is such a win. You’ve got enough going on in your busy day, don’t let some potatoes throw you a curveball!
