Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 F. Grease a 1 ½ quart casserole dish; set aside.
- In a medium saucepan over medium-low heat, melt butter.
- Stir in flour, and cook for 1 minute.
- Add milk, and whisk to combine.
- Stir in mustard, salt, pepper, and thyme.
- Cook until milk thickens, stirring occasionally. It will be the consistency of a cream soup.
- Reduce heat to low, and stir in cheese.
- Place half of the sliced potatoes in prepared casserole dish.
- Pour 2/3 cup of cheese sauce over potatoes.
- Repeat layer with remaining potatoes.
- Dot cream cheese over potatoes.
- Cover cream cheese and potatoes with remaining cheese sauce.
- Cover and bake for about 60 minutes.
Notes
- Butter: I use salted butter in this recipe.
- Milk: You can use any milk, from skim to whole milk, in this recipe. Whole milk will make for a richer dish.
- Mustard: The dry mustard adds some extra flavor to the sauce. You can reduce or omit the mustard if you prefer.
- Thyme: The thyme can be omitted if you prefer.
- Cheddar cheese: I like to use sharp cheddar, but you could use white cheddar or another type of shredded cheese instead of the sharp cheddar.
- Cream cheese: You can use regular or reduced-fat cream cheese. I don't recommend using fat-free cream cheese.
