This is a basic cheese sauce that you can spruce up with any herbs or spices you may like. I like this sauce with baked potatoes.
Ingredients:
1 tablespoon butter
2 tablespoons flour
1 cup milk
1/2 cup cheese, grated (your choice, mozzarella, cheddar, brie)
1/4 cup parmesan cheese
salt
pepper
Directions:
1. Melt butter in heavy saucepan on top of stove.
2. Add flour and stir until well mixed and bubbly being careful not to scorch.
3. Remove from heat and add milk; stirring until well blended.
4. Return sauce to heat and bring to a boil, stirring constantly.
5. Reduce heat, add shredded cheese and parmesan and cook until cheese melts and there is no taste of raw starch.
6. Add salt and pepper to taste.
