My friend ImPat made these potatoes and enjoyed them very much so decided to give them a try. I had 6 potatoes left in the bag so used them all and increased the half and half to one cup and skim milk to 3/4 cup. Added more seasoning, shredded cheddar cheese and did not have a runny sauce. The potatoes were tender, creamy and very good Will be adding them to my side dish rotation. Made and reviewed for the Alphabet Tag game.

I was anxious to try this technique and it does work. These are creamy, yummy taters but without a thickening agent the sauce stays very thin. My family prefers a sauce that stays on the food rather than running all over the plate. This isn't an overly cheesey au gratin but one which the flavors are nicely balanced. With a little thickening this will be a family favorite. Thank you for the recipe.
