Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Melt the butter over medium high heat in a medium skillet with 2-3" high sides.
  2. Sprinkle the flour, black pepper and cayenne pepper over the flour and whisk until the flour is completely mixed with the butter and no dry bits remain.
  3. Cook, whisking constantly for one minute.
  4. Whisk in the milk and half and half and stir constantly until the mixture comes to a boil. Cook for one minute, again, stirring constantly so it doesn't burn or stick to the bottom of the skillet.
  5. Remove from heat and stir in the beef to mix well.
  6. Place a piece of toast on each plate and divide the creamed chipped beef over the toast. Sprinkle with parsley and serve.
