  • 5 lbs. potatoes, cubed and boiled
  • 2 cubes butter
  • 16 oz. sour cream
  • 24 oz. 2 cheeses (Cheddar & Jack) grated
  • 2 cans cream of mushroom soup
  • 1 large onion, finely chopped (optional)
  • 1 cup mushrooms, sliced (optional)
  • Salt and Pepper to taste


Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Generously butter the sides of a large cake pan, or dutch oven.

Boil the cubed potatoes until almost done - not too soft. Drain, and set aside. Mix the butter, sour cream, grated cheeses, mushroom soup and onions (and sliced mushrooms, optional) in a large pan over a low heat on the stove. Keep stirring until cheeses have all melted. Then fold in the potatoes and gently stir. Pour this mixture into either a dutch oven or large cake pan and top with some grated yellow cheese.

Bake for 30-40 minutes, until everything is bubbly hot. When you remove from oven, let it sit for 5 minutes before serving..
