Cheesy Potatoes

I just love Paula Deen. I mean what is there not to love with all that butter? Now granted it is not the healthiest of fare but soooo delicious.

This was also a dish I made for the get together last Saturday evening.

Cheesy Potatoes
Makes 8 to 10 servings

6 medium baking potatoes, peeled and diced
1 cup cubed processed cheese
3/4 cup whole milk
1/4 cup diced onion
3 Tbsp butter, melted
1 large egg, lightly beaten
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp ground black pepper

1. In large Dutch oven, combine potatoes and water to cover. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce heat, and simmer for 8 to 10 minutes, or until potatoes are tender. Drain well.
2. Preheat oven to 350F. Spray a 2-quart baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.
3. Place potatoes in a large bowl. Add cheese, milk, onion, butter, egg, salt, and pepper. Beat at medium speed with an electric mixer until combined. Spoon mixture into prepared baking dish. Cover, and bake for 20 minutes or until heated through. Serve immediately.
