This was terrific; I did play with it a little after reading the other reviews; can't ever just follow directions. I used half grated swiss and half sharp white cheddar and added a little grated parmesan to the top with the other cheeses. I also used my garlic press to smoosh 2 large garlic cloves that I added to the cream. It was DELISH and my hubby ate it all up!

I don't know what I did wrong, though I carefully followed the directions, but these were so bland, we threw most of them away, and the "backup" Betty Crocker boxed ones were completely eaten. Swiss is nice, but swiss on a slice of potato with a sprinkle of nutmeg just was NOT anything special at all. We all agreed it was missing SOMETHING. What a disappointment to have made this for Easter dinner for my family. I'd suggest trying a small batch first before bringing it out for company. Perhaps the other reviewers who added additional cheeses made the difference. So much for following the directions :(

This is great. I've made this many times but when I make it I do a mixture of sweets and white potatoes. Excellent.
