Make the Cheese Sauce
In a saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Whisk in the flour and cook for 1 minute. Gradually add the milk while whisking continuously until the mixture thickens, about 3-5 minutes. Stir in the cheddar cheese and cream cheese until melted and smooth. Add hot sauce, salt, and pepper to taste.
