Baked Garlic Cheese Grits

6 c. vegetable broth
1 t. salt
1/4 t. pepper
1/4 t. garlic powder
2 c. regular grits
16 oz. cheddar cheese, cubed
1/2 c. milk
4 large eggs, beaten
1/2 c. unsalted butter
8 oz. grated sharp white cheddar cheese

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a 4-qt. casserole dish.

Bring broth, salt, pepper, and garlic powder to a boil in a 2 qt. saucepan. Stir in the grits and whisk until completely combined. Reduce heat to low and simmer until the grits are thick, about 8-10 minutes. Add the cubed 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 white cheddar and bake for 35-40 minutes or until set.

Serves 12 or more.
