To make the sauce, melt cannabutter, onion and garlic over medium low heat. Cook until onion is softened, about 3 minutes. Add flour and in, whisk & cook for 1-2 minutes.
Reduce heat to low. Combine milk and broth. Add a small amount at a time whisking to thicken. Add in all of your choosencheeses, leaving a handful to sprinkle on top at the end. The mixture will become very thick, continue adding a little bit of liquid at a time whisking until smooth.
Once all of the liquid has been added, bring to a boil over medium heat while continuing to whisk. Stir in salt and pepper and let boil 1 minute.
Assembling Scalloped Potatoes
Grease a 9"x13" baking dish. Place ⅓ of the potatoes in the bottom in layers, and season with salt and pepper. Pour ⅓ of the cream sauce sauce over top.
Repeat layers ending with cream sauce every time until it's done! Cover and bake for 45 minutes.
Once you are at 45 minutes, remove the cover and broil for 10 minutes to crisp up the top of the potatoes and cream sauce.
It will be smokin' hot – so leave for 15 minutes before serving, and enjoy!
Wash potatoes, and then rub each potato with 1 teaspoon of oil, and prick the top with a fork.
Place the potatoes on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet and bake for 1 hour.
Next, Transfer potatoes to a cutting board, and cut in half. Leave the oven on.
Using a spoon, gently scoop out the inside flesh of the potatoes and transfer to a medium bowl. Keep the "boats" of potato skin, intact.
Add the sour cream, melted cannabis butter, salt, pepper, ½ of the shredded cheese, and ½ of the herbs and combine with a hand mixer or potato masher until smooth.
Transfer the potato mixture back into the scooped out potato skins.
Bake for another 10 minutes
