1 qt. milk
1/2 c. plus 1/3 c. butter
1 c. hominy grits (not the quick kind)
1 tsp. salt
1/8 tsp. pepper
1/3 c. Parmesan cheese
1 c. grated Gruyere cheese (freeze first for ease in grating)

Bring milk to a boil in double boiler. Add 1/2 cup butter. Gradually stir in 1 cup hominy grits. Stir constantly until thick, like cooked cream of wheat. Remove from heat. Stir in salt and pepper. Beat with an electric mixer for 5 minutes. It will be creamy. Pour into buttered 9 x 13 x 2 inch dish. Cool. This can be done the day before. Cut into rectangular pieces, about 2 x 3 inches. Lay them slightly overlapping in a buttered, shallow casserole. Over these pieces, pour 1/3 cup melted butter. Sprinkle with the 2 cheeses.

At serving time, heat in hot oven (400 degrees) for 30 minutes. If desired, put under the broiler for few minutes to turn a light brown. Very delicious! Good reheated.
