Add onion; cook, stirring frequently, until very soft and golden brown, 5 to 8 minutes.

Add flour, salt and pepper; cook, stirring, for 1 minute more.

Add milk; cook, stirring and scraping up any brown bits at the bottom of the pan.

When the sweet potatoes are done, remove them from the oven.

Transfer half the sweet potatoes to a 2-quart broiler-safe baking dish.

Spread half the sauce over the sweet potatoes and top with 1/2 cup cheese.

Add the remaining sweet potatoes and top with the remaining sauce and cheese.

Let stand 10 minutes.

Serve topped with rosemary.
