This recipe does not word as written. There is no thickener for the sauce, and the potatoes do not cook within the cooking time indicated.

When this recipe finally got done, it was good. However, it needs a little tweeking. First, use teaspoons not tablespoons of salt and pepper. I used only three tsp of each because the cheese is salty. Next, it might be best to par-boil the potatoes first. I used a madolin and sliced the potatoes very thin, but it still took over an hour to cook. Next, raise the temp. about half way through to about 400deg. to get the mixture to bubble to help cook the potatoes. Also, I added a few slices of onion.

Do not try this recipe. Curdled buttermilk, uncooked potatoes after more than 90 minutes in oven AND 20 minutes in microwave. Terrible.

I really liked these potatoes. However I made them for a party of 40 so they took forever to cook. Also they were really salty and almost bitter. I would suggest a different type of milk.

Uuuck! Super disgusting! Way too much salt and pepper! They might be good if you just used a teaspoon of salt and pepper.

Seriously the worst I have ever made. Too watery, Too hard, as in undercooked, too Salty, Too Peppery, and I like hot stuff. This was by far the worst excuse for potatoes I've ever experienced. Other recipes from you guys have been great, but you should seriuosly consider removing this, because if you don't read the reviews you can't imagine what you are in for...take-out!

I'm so sorry, I hate to give poor reviews, but these were not good at all. They were oily, salty and under cooked. I did try an excellent recipe on this site called Creamy Au Gratin Potatoes submitted by Cathy Martin which was great! I'd suggest to try that one instead.

Add another one to the list of "I should have read the reviews first before making this!" I was planning a very special dinner for my boyfriend which unfortunately included these so called Au Gratin Potatoes. Needless to say the night turned out pretty bad because I was so embarrassed that I couldn't get these potatoes cooked.

almost a winner! I didn't taste the salt at all, i would recommend doubling up on the salt and maybe a shot of hot sauce.

This recipe is awful. I did not read the reviews and have learned from my mistake. Took over two hours to cook, were watery and tasted terrible. Whole thing went into the trash. DO NOT try this recipe!

I caught my mistake using this recipe right after I put it in the oven, so I bumped the temperature up and planned the rest of my meal to be served later in hopes the potatoes would be done. Over an hour at 450 degrees later, the potatoes weren't tender at all. The sauce was a lumpy, and oily. Thankfully I never add salt to most recipes until I taste them at the end.

What a disappointment! This recipe is all wrong. The potatoes weren't cooked, the "sauce" was all watery and greasy from the chesse. I was disappointed in myself for screwing it up, but after seeing all these other reviews I'm glad to find out that it wasn't me, it was the recipe.

I can't believe I didn't look at the reviews first before trying this recipe. Well, It is way too salty. I think I cooked mine in the past at 425 for 45 minutes not 35 because the temperature was too low. I needed to cook this for 2 hours. I used less than half the salt and it was still way too salty. I should have known better than to just follow this recipe blindly especially since I've made this countless times in the past. I'm using it for a Thanksgiving dinner at work and it's ruined. Thanks a lot. You should take this recipe off of this site.

I make a recipe similar to this all the time, and it is one of my favorites. mabye these suggestions will help. add a little salt and pepper, not much you can salt it to taste later i cook my potatoes at 350 for about an hour, more or less depending. you just have to taste it and see. i layer flour to thicken it up a bit. I use american cheese, and a blend of co-jack and mild cheddar. i layer all types of cheese in each layer. i dot butter in each layer also. just a few thin slivers. it is not very visually appealing, but it is very good.
