Turn into a large buttered casserole and top with the munster cheese.
Bake in a preheated 375℉ (190℃) oven for 15 minutes, or until the top is crusty and brown.
Spread the remaining 2 tablespoons White Sauce over the top.
Cover with a layer of parmesan cheese mixed with the breadcrumbs.
Dab with the butter. Return to the oven for 10 more minutes.
Place under high broiler for 1 minute to brown the top and serve immediately.
