Ingredients
  

2 lbs baby Yukon Gold potatoes

1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted

4 cloves garlic, minced

1 tsp fresh rosemary, chopped (or 1/2 tsp dried)

1 tsp fresh thyme (or 1/2 tsp dried)

1 tsp salt

1/2 tsp black pepper

1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 450°F (232°C).

    Boil the Potatoes: In a large pot, add the baby potatoes and cover with water. Bring to a boil and cook for about 15-20 minutes, or until fork-tender. Drain and let cool slightly.

      Prepare the Baking Sheet: Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.

        Smash the Potatoes: Gently press down on each potato with the bottom of a glass or a potato masher until they are slightly flattened, but still intact.

          Season the Potatoes: In a bowl, mix together the melted butter, minced garlic, rosemary, thyme, salt, and black pepper. Drizzle this mixture over the smashed potatoes, ensuring they are evenly coated.

            Add Parmesan Cheese: Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese generously over the potatoes, covering them well.

              Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the potatoes are golden brown and crispy on the edges.

                Garnish and Serve: Remove from the oven and garnish with chopped parsley. Serve hot and enjoy the crispy buttery perfection!
