Potato Corn Chowder

Winter has brought on a whole new excitement in our house...its called "no work, no money, eat what we can for CHEAP!"  you are super excited now aren't ya?!  Ha...actually, this has become such a favorite around here, it is requested, even when there is work...guess that says something for it.

3 lbs potatoes, chopped into bite size pieces
1/2 onion, diced
4 T butter
2 T flour
4 cups chicken broth
1 bag (16oz or so) frozen corn
3 cups milk
2 cups shredded cheese
1 T cayenne (if you like a little depth but not too much "hot")
1 T ground pepper

melt butter then saute onion till soft.  Add in flour, stir to coat well, then add in chicken broth & potatoes.  Bring to boil & cook about 25 min till potatoes are soft & easily pierced w/a fork.  Add in corn, milk & 1 cup cheese...cook about another 5 min.  Serve w/a dollop of shredded cheese on top.
