HOW MANY OUNCES OF CHEDDAR CHEESE IN ONE CUP RECIPES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• In a pan cook butter, salt, pepper and flour and stir until smooth.
• Remove from heat add milk, return to heat and bring to a boil.
• Boil 1 minute.
• Remove from heat and add cheese, stir until melted.
• Pour over elbows, sprinkle with breadcrumbs and bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes.

Steps:

• Add butter and flour to a medium pot over medium heat. Let the butter melt and whisk the flour into the butter. Let it cook for 3-4 minutes until mixture turns a light tan color and smells a bit nutty.
• Slowly start drizzling warm milk into the flour mixture, whisking constantly. Add the milk in a constant stream to avoid lumping. Start with 2-1/2 cups of milk and, depending on thickness, add the other 1/2 later if needed. Let the mixture heat as you whisk, thickening over a few minutes.
• Once the sauce is the consistency of a light gravy, add the grated cheddar cheese and whisk it into the sauce so it melts evenly.
• Season the sauce with salt and pepper to taste.
• Use the warm cheese sauce with pasta, or put it in a dish and serve with bread cubes or chips as a queso dip!
