4 medium potatoes, sliced
1/2 cup butter, softened
3/4 cup white sugar
2 tablespoons flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
2 cups milk
1 ball Italian-style bread cubes
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook potatoes in boiling water for 8 to 10 minutes, or until tender. Drain and rinse in cold water.
In a large bowl, stir together butter, sugar, flour and baking powder. Transfer potato mixture to a 8x8 inch baking dish. Spread filling over potato mixture. Bake in preheated oven for 30 minutes.
To test for doneness, spoon potato mixture over baked potato mixture and return to oven. Bake for 10 to 15 minutes, or until golden brown.
