3 Tablespoons Flour

3 heaping Tablespoons of Sour Cream OR Cream Cheese

1/4 cup Parmesan Cheese

2 cups Half n Half (my daughter uses evaporated milk, her preference!)

In a dutch oven, melt 1/2 cup Butter. Melt on low, low, low.

You may have to take pot off of stove while adding 1/4 cup Parmesan Cheese, then stir.

and 3 heaping Tablespoons of Sour Cream OR Cream Cheese.

Now, put the pot back on the stove on low, low heat,

If sauce becomes too thick, add more Half n Half to your desired consistency.
