Make the Cheese Sauce
In a saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Stir in the flour and cook for 1-2 minutes until bubbly. Gradually whisk in the milk, continuing to stir until the sauce thickens. Remove from heat and stir in 1.5 cups of the shredded cheddar cheese, salt, and pepper until melted and smooth.
