Instructions

  8. Place pan back on burner at medium heat and stir until cheese is melted.
  9. Add salt and pepper to mixture and stir.
  10. Add melted cheese, butter, and onion mixture to potatoes in baking dish.
  11. Bake uncovered for 1 hour.
  12. Mix bread crumbs and additional 8 ounce package cheddar cheese and sprinkle on top of cooked cheesy potatoes.
  13. Bake for an additional 15 minutes or until top is brown and bubbly.
  14. Let sit 10 minutes before serving.
Tips:
  1. Sharp cheddar or mild cheddar cheese can be used for this recipe. It's not necessary to have both if they are not available. Any other variety of cheese will also work well, however we suggest using sharp cheddar cheese for its strong taste.
