Implementing "Remember Me" Feature in ASP.NET MVC

I'm trying to implement a "remember me" feature to my login form. I am using ASP.NET MVC as my web application. I managed to get the cookie stuff working, but I failed to automatically login the user in case he/she checked the remember me checkbox before. I know what the problem is but I do not know how to solve it.

In my HomeController I have the following:

private LoginViewModel CheckLoginCookie()
{
    if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(_appCookies.Email) && !string.IsNullOrEmpty(_appCookies.Password))
    {
        var login = new LoginViewModel
                        {
                            Email = _appCookies.Email,
                            Password = _appCookies.Password
                        };

        return login;
    }
    return null;
}


public ActionResult Index()
{
    var login = CheckLoginCookie();
    if (login != null)
        return RedirectToAction("Login", "User", login);

    var viewModel = new HomeIndexViewModel
                        {
                            IntroText =
                                "Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.",
                            LastMinuteDeals = new List<ItemsIndexViewModel>(),
                            TrustedDeals = new List<ItemsIndexViewModel>()
                        };
    return View(viewModel);
}

And in my UserController, I have the Login action method:

public ActionResul
