Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
  2. Place a large pot of salted water on high heat and bring to a boil while you prepare the broccoli.
  3. Wash the broccoli. Cut or break the tops into florets. Peel and slice the stalks.
  4. Add the broccoli to the boiling salted water. When the water returns to the boil, cook for 3 minutes. Let the broccoli drain in a colander while you prepare the sauce.
  5. Place the pot the broccoli was boiled in over medium heat and add 2 tablespoons of the butter. When the butter has melted, sprinkle in the flour. Cook, stirring constantly, for 2 to 3 minutes. Add the milk in a slow, steady stream while stirring. Cook until the mixture begins to thicken.
  6. Add the Cheddar and cream cheese and stir continuously until both are melted.
  7. Remove the pot from the heat and add the sour cream, salt, and pepper.
  8. Add the drained broccoli to the sauce and stir gently to coat.
  9. Turn into a casserole dish. Bake for 15 minutes.
  10. Remove from oven and sprinkle the top with the sliced almonds and dot with the remaining 2 tablespoons butter.
  11. Return to the oven and continue cooking for 20 additional minutes.
  12. Let stand for 10-15 minutes before serving. Sauce will thicken during the standing time.
