Steps:
- 1. Preheat oven to 350 F. Prepare a 1 1/2 - 2-quart baking dish by buttering the dish generously (I use cooking spray).
- 2. In a double boiler, combine butter, milk, flour, onion, salt, and pepper.
- 3. Cook on low heat until it begins to thicken, stirring constantly with a whisk. Add 1/2 of your cheese and stir until cheese melts.

- 5. While you are cooking this, in another saucepan add sliced potatoes and cover with chicken broth.
- 6. Bring to a slow boil and cook slowly until they are about half done, no more (about 5 - 7 minutes).
- 7. Drain potatoes.
- 8. Place a layer of potatoes.
- 9. Then a layer of cheese sauce.
- 10. Repeat.
- 11. Place potatoes in the oven and bake for approximately 20 minutes until potatoes are tender and sauce is bubbly.
- 12. Remove from oven and place the remainder of cheddar cheese on top of potatoes.
- 13. Return potatoes to the oven for about 5 minutes until cheese is melted.
