Warm the milk in the microwave before using for the sauce - for the ease of this recipe you will be surprised at how good this is! :) Ingredients:
2 tablespoons butter or 2 tablespoons margarine |
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour |
1 cup half-and-half cream or 1 cup milk, warmed |
tabasco sauce (to taste or a pinch of cayenne) |
1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese (can use up to 2 cups) |
ground black pepper (optional and to taste) |
Directions:
1. In a large microwave-safe bowl (I use my 8-cup Pyrex measuring cup) microwave the butter for 30 seconds on HIGH.
2. Add in the warmed cream or milk, Tabasco and flour; whisk vigorously until completely combined.
3. Add in the shredded cheddar cheese.
4. Microwave on HIGH for about 2 minutes removing a few times during cooking to stir.
5. Cook until the cheese has melted and the mixture is thick.
6. If desired season with ground black pepper to taste.
