1/4 c Milk
1 1/2 oz Cream cheese
4 oz Old english cheese

butter is melted and absorbed in potatoes.
Combine milk, cream cheese and Old English cheese in a saucepan. Heat,

after each addition until all is used and potatoes are light and fluffy.

casserole, sprinkle with Parmesan cheese, and place in a hot 450 degree
oven to brown beautifully (approx. 15 min.)
NOTE: "Add 1 t. lemon juice to meringue just before folding into
potatoes. You'll like it."
