1
Prepare the Broccoli
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Add the broccoli florets and blanch for about 3 minutes until bright green and tender-crisp. Drain and set aside.
2
Make the Cheese Sauce
In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Stir in the flour and cook for 1 minute. Slowly whisk in the milk, stirring constantly until the mixture thickens and bubbles.
3
Add Cheese and Seasoning
Reduce heat to low and stir in the shredded cheddar cheese until melted. Add garlic powder, salt, and black pepper to taste.
4
Combine and Serve
Pour the cheese sauce over the blanched broccoli and mix well until the broccoli is coated in the cheese. Serve hot.
