I did not add the sherry, because I didn't have it on hand, but it didn't need it. These were very good. I did put Ritz crackers on top per other reviews and did not like it. I think it would be better with cornflakes. My picky 2-year old ate them up. I will make these again.

Very tasty! I served it as a side with the Key West Chicken (also found at this site, though I substituted pork loin slices to great success) to friends and we all raved. However, instead of using boiled potatoes I fixed them in the French persillee manner: microwave potato chunks 15 minutes in a can of beef broth or consomme', a dash of salt and a dash of pepper, slices of butter to taste, and about three tablespoons of chopped parsley. (These potatoes are good in themselves, but when used to make the scalloped potatoes you have a very fine dish indeed!)

Thank you for this recipe, I absolutely love it. I've made this dish numerous times and it comes out amazing every time. I did use the sherry as suggested in the original recipe and it's delicious. I did however make a couple modifications which I feel make it even tastier. I use heavy cream instead of milk. This makes the consistency much thicker, but obviously if you're being health conscious this is not the way to go. Also, instead of cheddar, I use a bag of Mexican three cheese blend. As another reviewer stated, I would also suggest the melting of the butter and the cheese to be done over the stove. This dish is so delicious and easy to prepare I will definitely make it again. Thank you!

I followed the recipe pretty closely and the potatoes were delicious! I didn't have any sherry or wine in the house so I used a few glugs of lager....tasty. Instead of baking in a glass dish I put the whole mixture in my cast iron and baked in that resulting in a crispy cheese crust around the edges. Thanks for the recipe!

this was great, my boyfriend really liked it. i was trying to use up the rest of my coconut milk so i used that instead of regular milk and also cut the butter by half as suggested by other reviewers and used half cheddar cheese and half gouda. I used white wine instead of sherry (i didn't have sherry and it was suggested by some to substitute wine). i also put some extra mixed cheese on top before the cornflake crumbs (my boyfriend really like the baked cheese thing ;-) ) and it was great! pic

Instead of the microwave I made the cheese sauce over the stove and I left the sherry out. Making a stove top cheese sauce was not very time consuming. I also cut calories by using 1% milk and reduced fat cheddar. I used Italian seasoned breadcrumbs instead of cereal crumbs. It still made a wonderfully cheesy and tasty scalloped potatoes dish.

I made this dish for our Xmas Eve office dinner and everyone LOVED it! The only changes I made was heating the milk, butter, and cheese on the stove. I also added 1 teaspoon of Fox Point seasoning (from Penzeys Spice). I also used new red potatoes. The flavor was great!

This was a pretty good recipe, nice flavor and very simple to put together. I would suggest melting butter with cheese(s) and milk over the stove instead of the microwave. Microwave could cause splatter and the cheese to crust a little at the edges. I think this recipe would do well with some onions as well. Thanks for sharing!

Extremely satifying when you substitute white wine for the sherry and Ritz crackers for the cornflakes as suggested by other reviewers.

made this last night for my boyfriend and family. they really did enjoy this dish! a little more work than the variety of instant potatoes offered at the grocery store, but nothing beats meals from scratch. the only recommendation i could give would be to add more cheese, and if another type of cheese is preferred, go for it! other than that... it was very good. would make again!!!

I added onions to the potatoes while they were cooking. I added sour cream, chives and garlic to the cheese sauce and it was absolutely delicious. My husband and a friend of ours loved this recipe. It will be used over and over.

Not bad...I didn't use Sherry in this recipe. And I also changed the corn-flake crumbs to Ritz crumbs (place crackers in sealable bag and have-at-em with a rolling pin!) I'd think that the cereal would be a bit on the sweeter side(??) where the Ritz added a nice salty taste. I used the only chedder cheese that I could find at my regular Japan grocery store! (at least I found some!!!)

Sorry, I did not care for this. In fact, I didn't want to finish what I made and gave the rest to my brother (who will eat almost anything but rarely gets anything home-cooked). It's not for any of the negative reasons already stated. There was just some flavor I didn't like and cannot pinpoint. I thought perhaps it was the crumb topping. But since 3 out of 4 5-star ratings are from people who left out the sherry or used white wine instead, I'm wondering if it was the "hint" of sherry.

Great tasting recipe... I did make a few changes before getting started. Added two chopped scallions and cut the butter to 1/4 cup. I used american cheese instead of the cheddar and added just a little more sherry. The results were very tasty. Thank you.

My husband is a very picky eater and loved this. I added diced ham and used cheddar cheese instead of American. I didn't use any sherry, but I will when I make this again.

I give it 5 stars for the concept, but I changed it a lot. I used half cheddar and half velveeta for the cheeses to keep it from being oily from all cheddar. I also only used 4 tbsp of butter, and a splash of white wine instead of cooking sherry. I cooked the sauce on the stove so I could control the heat, and I added in some pepper as well. I used gluten free breadcrumbs in lieu of cornflakes. It turned out amazing! The wine was essential, it wouldn't have tasted nearly as good without it.

Can you say COMFORT FOOD!! I could have eaten the whole batch of it. I didn't have sherry on hand so omitted that, and I usd american cheese instead of cheddar. I also did not have corn flakes so I used bread crumbs. The kids even had seconds!
