- 2 Tablespoons flour
- 1 cup heavy cream

- Whisk in the flour and continue to cook for 4-5 minutes, stirring often.
- Pour in the heavy cream and whole milk and whisk together. Add cheese, 1 cup at a time, until melted, stirring well after each addition. Let cook for 10-15 minutes, stirring often.
