Recipe Instructions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C).
Step 2
Place 4 tablespoons butter in a medium saucepan. Add 1/4 cup water and bring to a boil over medium heat. Add cauliflower and cook until tender, 5 to 7 minutes. Drain.
Step 3
Melt remaining butter in a small saucepan over low heat.
Step 4
Transfer cauliflower to a glass baking dish. Stir in 3/4 cup Parmesan cheese, melted butter, salt, and pepper. Smooth out the mixture so it's even in the dish. Sprinkle remaining Parmesan over the top.
Step 5
Bake in the preheated oven until smooth and creamy with a light brown top, about 30 minutes. Transfer dip to a serving bowl or warmed fondue pot and serve immediately.
