Cayenne pepper gives a little zip to this creamy chicken bake. It's one of my most-requested dishes for potluck dinners and other get-togethers. I sometimes use spinach noodles in place of the egg noodles.—Cheryl Davidson, Fulshear, Texas

5 cups uncooked egg noodles
1/4 cup butter, cubed
1/2 cup king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour
1-1/2 cups 2% milk
