Rozella's Potato Salad

In the February 2013 issue of Cabin Life, Christy Heitger-Ewing wrote about her mom's beloved potato salad and how it became a staple at their annual cabin picnic. Here's the recipe:

7–8 medium-size potatoes
½ onion, chopped (optional)
4–5 hard-boiled eggs
8 heaping tablespoons Miracle Whip Light
3 tablespoons yellow mustard
¼ cup milk
? cup sugar
Salt and pepper to taste
Paprika

Boil potatoes with skins on, then peel when cooked. Chop potatoes, onions and 2–3 of the eggs. Mix together in a large bowl. In a separate bowl, mix Miracle Whip, mustard, milk, sugar, salt and pepper. Pour sauce over the potato mixture and combine well. Slice the remaining 1–2 eggs and arrange on top of potato salad. Sprinkle with paprika. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
