Au Gratin Potatoes

These are DELICIOUS!!! Much better than the boxed kind you can buy!

2 lbs. potatoes sliced thinly (about 6 medium potatoes)
1/3 c. diced onions. (onion powder can be substituted if you need to)
1/4 cup butter
1 T. flour
1 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. pepper
2 c. milk
2 1/2 c. shredded cheese

Combine onions and butter in saucepan over med. heat. Add flour, salt, and pepper. Cook, stirring constantly, until mixture starts to bubble. Remove from heat. Stir in milk and 1 1/2 c. cheese. Heat to boiling, stirring constantly. Pour cheese sauce over potatoes in ungreased casserole dish. Bake uncovered at 375 for 45 min - 1 hr. Pull out, sprinkle remaining cheese onto potatoes, and continue baking until cheese is brown and bubbly.
