Best Aunt Barbaras Cheese Potatoes Recipes

GRANDMA BARBARA'S CHEESY POTATOES

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. While oven is heating, cook potatoes in their skins in a large pot of boiling water just until cooked through. Peel and grate.
• 2. Heat milk and cream in a saucepan and gently add cheese until it's thoroughly melted. Add mustard, salt and pepper.
• 3. Spray a 9x13-inch pan with cooking spray. Add potatoes, and pour cheese sauce over top. Bake covered for about an hour. Toward the last 10 minutes uncover to slightly brown top.
• 4. Please note, I divided this recipe into two batches, freezing half for later. That's why I used an 8x8-inch pan (the other is in the freezer, and has a bit less than half the recipe in it. FYI)

AUNT CLARA'S CHEESE POTATOES

Steps:

• 1. Peel potatoes and slice into 1/8" slices. Place in greased Dutch oven.
• 2. In a large saucepan, melt butter. Add flour and stir until blended. Add the salt and pepper. Pour in milk, little by little, stirring constantly with a wire whisk.
• 3. Over medium-high heat, whisk constantly until mixture begins to thicken. When bubbles start to form, remove from heat and add 1-1/2 cups of the cheese. Pour over potatoes and mix thoroughly.
• 4. Bake in a pre-heated 350-degree oven, covered, for 1 hour. Remove lid, sprinkle 1/2 cup remaining cheese over the top of potatoes, and continue baking, uncovered, for 30 minutes more.
• 5. If you like, you may add buttered bread crumbs (about 3/4 cup) when you add the 1/2 cup of cheese.
