  6                    Medium potatoes
  1       t            Salt
    1/2   ts           Pepper
    1/4   c            Butter
    1/2   ts           Baking powder

   Boil potatoes in jackets.  Peel and force through a sieve or ricer. Add
 salt, pepper, butter, baking powder, and cream. Beat until well blended and
 butter is melted and absorbed in potatoes.
   Combine milk, cream cheese and Old English cheese in a saucepan. Heat,
 stirring, until cheese melts.  Add 2 T. at a time to potatoes, beating
 after each addition until all is used and potatoes are light and fluffy.
 Stir beaten egg yolks into potatoes and mix well. Beat egg whites until
 consistency of meringue and fold into potatoes. Pour into a 2-qt. ovenproof
 casserole, sprinkle with Parmesan cheese, and place in a hot 450 degree
 oven to brown beautifully (approx. 15 min.)
   NOTE: "Add 1 t. lemon juice to meringue just before folding into
 potatoes. You'll like it."
