Paula Deen's Famous Cheese Grits
BAKED GARLIC CHEESE GRITS
(a Southern Favorite. These grits go well with seafood, too,)
6 cups of chicken broth (canned is fine)
1 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. pepper
2 cups regular grits
3 Six ounce rolls Kraft cheese food with garlic, or any garlic Cheddar spread, cut up
1/2 cup milk
4 eggs, beaten
1/2 cup (1 stick) butter
1 cup grated sharp Cheddar cheese
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 4-quart casserole dish.
Bring the broth, salt, and pepper to a boil in a 2-quart saucepan. Stir in the grits and whisk until completely combined. Reduce the heat to low and simmer until the grits are thick (about 8 minutes).
Add the garlic cheese and milk and stir. Gradually stir in the eggs and butter, stirring until all are combined.
Pour the mixture into the prepared casserole dish. Sprinkle with the Cheddar cheese and bake for 45 minutes or until set.
