  3. In a medium saucepan, melt 4 tablespoons of butter over medium heat.
  4. Whisk in 1/4 cup of all-purpose flour.
  5. Cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring constantly, until the mixture is smooth and bubbly.
  6. Gradually whisk in 3 cups of milk, ensuring no lumps form.
  7. Bring the mixture to a gentle boil, then reduce heat to low.
  8. Simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  9. Remove from heat and stir in 4 ounces of cream cheese, 4 ounces of Swiss cheese (shredded), 1/2 teaspoon of salt, 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper, and 1/4 teaspoon of nutmeg.
  10. Stir until the cheeses are completely melted and the sauce is smooth.
  11. Peel and thinly slice 2 pounds of russet potatoes.
  12. Layer half of the potatoes in the prepared casserole dish.
  13. Pour half of the cheese sauce over the potatoes.
  14. Repeat layers with remaining potatoes and sauce, ensuring the top layer is sauce.
