Cheese Sauce For Veggies

[Roxy15]

This cheese sauce turned out great for Thanksgiving if anyone wants to try it; I put it over broccoli.

 

2 T. Butter
2 T. Flour
2 Cups Half-And-Half Or 2 Cups Milk
***I Used Half-And-Half
Recipe Called For 3 Cups Cubed Velveeta: Cubed About 1-inch But I Shredded A Whole Pkg. Of Cheddar Cheese & Used It All, Was Too Tired & Lazy To Measure ha!  I Am Glad I Used It All
Salt & Pepper, To Taste
Sprinkle Of Paprika Or Cayenne-(1/4-Tsp. Or So)

 

Melt the butter in a skillet or saucepan; remove from heat.

 

Blend in flour using a wire whisk.

Return to heat; gradually whisk in the half-and-half or milk; bring to a light boil; keep whisking until the mixture is smooth.

 

Add in the cubed velvets ir Shredded Cheddar Cheese; continue to whisk until the cheese is melted.

 

If it seems too thick, stir in some more half-and-half or milk.

 

Add salt and pepper, to taste; stir well.

 

Pour cheese sauce over broccoli: sprinkle some paprika or cayenne on top.
