Creamy Cheese Sauce

A family recipe, the amount for each ingredient in this sauce has always been guessed.  Feel free to experiment!  It is perfect for adding to pasta with shrimp or chicken and mushrooms. 
For this lump-free cheese sauce, microwave about three tablespoons unsalted butter in a covered ceramic casserole dish until completely melted.  Stir in two tablespoons flour with a whisk and microwave for 1 min.  Stir in about 1/2 cup milk, a few tablespoons at a time, microwaving for one minute between each new addition of milk.  Add 3-5 pieces swiss singles cheese and microwave for two minutes.  Add more milk if necessary until desired consistency and thickness is achieved.  Season with black pepper to taste and stir in a dash of Worcestershire sauce.  Serve immediately.

Treasured Tip #1

Want an even, flat cake without that peaked middle?  Pour the cake batter into a greased and floured round baking pan.  Dampen several paper towels with water and wrap them around the pan before placing it in the oven.  The water will cool the edges of the pan, creating a more level cake. 

Hello
