"I enjoy entertaining and always look for recipes that can be made ahead
of time. I got this comforting potato recipe from my mother-in-law. It's
wonderful because I can prepare it the night before. It contains basic
ingredients that everyone loves like milk and cheddar cheese." - Beverly
Templeton Place potatoes in a large kettle; cover with water. Add 1/2 tsp.
salt; cook until tender. Drain; mash potatoes until smooth.
In a saucepan, cook and stir butter, cheese, milk and remaining salt until
smooth. Stir into potatoes; fold in eggs. Pour into a greased 3-quart baking
dish.
Bake, uncovered, at 350 degrees for 40 minutes or until puffy and golden brown.

at room temperature for 30 minutes before baking.
