How to Make Potluck Potatoes

Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). Grease a 13x9 inch baking dish.
In a large bowl, combine the potatoes, butter, sour cream, cream of mushroom soup, cheddar cheese, and salt & pepper. Mix thoroughly until all ingredients are evenly distributed.
Pour the potato mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading evenly.
Bake for 60-70 minutes, or until golden brown and bubbly. The potatoes should be tender and heated through. You can check for doneness by inserting a fork into the center; it should easily slide in.
Let the potatoes rest for 10-15 minutes before serving. This allows them to set slightly and makes them easier to serve.
