1.50 cups milk

1 tbsp flour

1 egg

Slowly add Velvetta cheese and half the cheddar cheese, stirring regularly Do not let unmelted cheese rest on the bottom of the ban, or it will burn.

Cook on low heat until the cheese is melted and the sauce is smooth.

Pour cheese sauce over cooked noodles and stir to blend. It will seem like you have too much sauce for the noodles, but don’t worry, it will all get absorbed. Pour mixture into a 13”x9” glass pan.
