Cheese Sauce

This easy sauce can be used to make a quick homemade macaroni and cheese dish. Can also be used for baked potatoes, cauliflower, broccoli, or anything else that needs a good dose of melty cheese.

2 Tbs butter
2 Tbs flour
2 cups milk
2 cups cheddar cheese
salt & pepper to taste (opt.)

Heat a medium size pot to medium. Melt butter. Whisk the flour into the melted butter until fully combined. Add milk. Stir frequently until milk boils. Allow to boil for 3 minutes or so while stirring frequently. Sauce will thicken. Add cheese and stir until melted. Remove from heat and add salt and pepper as desired.
