• 1 cup water
• 1/2 cup butter, cubed
• 1/4 cup white vinegar
• 2 eggs
• 1/2 cup sugar
• 4 1/2 t. cornstarch
• 3/4 cup heavy whipping cream

Preparation

Step 1

Place potatoes in a stockpot and cover with water. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and cook for 15-20 minutes or until tender. Drain. When cool enough to handle, peel and slice potatoes; cool completely.

For dressing, in the top of a double boiler or metal bowl over barely simmering water, heat water, butter and vinegar until butter is melted.
In a small bowl, beat eggs; add sugar and cornstarch. Add to butter mixture; cook and stir for 5-7 minutes or until thickened. Transfer to a large bowl; cool completely.

In a small bowl, beat cream until stiff peaks form. Stir in Miracle Whip into cooled dressing mixture; fold in whipped cream. Stir in onion, green onions, salt and pepper. Add potatoes; toss lightly to combine. Refrigerate, covered, until chilled. Sprinkle with paprika.
