How To Make Sweet Onion Cbackerole
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Butter a 2-quart baking dish.

- Melt butter in a large sk*llet over medium heat, and cook and stir onions until translucent but not browned, about 8 minutes.

Transfer mixture to the prepared baking dish, and sprinkle remaining 1/4 cup Swiss cheese over top.
