Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 1 tablespoon All-purpose flour
- 1 cup Milk
- 1 cup Cheddar cheese, shredded
- 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper, freshly ground
- 0.25 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 2 tablespoons Heavy cream
Directions
Step 1
Heat a medium saucepan over medium heat, and add the butter. Allow it to melt completely.
Step 2
Whisk in the flour to create a smooth roux. Cook the roux for about 1–2 minutes until it begins to turn lightly golden, ensuring there is no raw flour taste.
Step 3
Gradually whisk in the milk, a little at a time, to prevent lumps from forming. Continue to whisk until the mixture thickens, about 3–4 minutes.
Step 4
Reduce the heat to low and stir in the shredded cheddar cheese until it has fully melted and incorporated into the sauce.
Step 5
Add the Dijon mustard, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder, and whisk to combine. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
Step 6
Stir in the heavy cream to give the sauce a silky, rich texture.
Step 7
Cook for another 2 minutes, stirring frequently, to ensure the sauce is smooth and heated through.
Step 8
Remove the sauce from the heat, and serve immediately over your favorite steak. Garnish with fresh herbs or an additional sprinkle of cheese if desired.
