Twice-Baked Cheese Grits image

The best cheese grits I have ever had, courtesy of my mom's recipe box. Bake it the night before and re-bake it in the morning. You can make this the morning, of, but I recommend you follow it as written to get the same consistency.

These grits were a little too cheesy for my taste, but my husband loved them. I think next time I'll use less cheese.
