INGREDIENTS:

5 pounds Yukon Gold Potatoes, sliced thin

1 medium White Onion, cut in half and thinly sliced

1 teaspoon Black Pepper

1 tablespoon Kosher Salt

1 quart Heavy Cream

1 teaspoon Salted Butter

8 ounces shredded Colby Jack Cheese

2 tablespoons Cornstarch

2 tablespoon Cold Water

Pam Cooking Spray

INSTRUCTIONS:

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. While the oven is preheating slice the potatoes thin. In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the heavy cream and bring to a low boil. Mix together the cornstarch and the cold water to make a paste. Add the cornstarch paste to the heavy cream and butter mixture. Reduced heat to low and simmer for 5 minutes or until thickened slightly. Remove from the head and stir in the Colby Jack Cheese until melted.

2. Grease a 9x13 baking dish with the Pam cooking spray. Layer half of the potato slices in the bottom of the casserole dish. Add half of the sliced onions to the potatoes. Add half of the cheese sauce to the top of the potatoes and onions. Add the other half of the potato slices, onion slices and cheese sauce. Cover tightly with foil.

3. Bake in the preheated oven for 1 hour. Remove the foil and continue cooking for another 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow to set up for a minute or two. Serve hot and enjoy!
