Instructions
Melt the butter in a saucepan, and add minced garlic.
Stir in the flour and cook, stirring constantly, until the paste cooks and bubbles a bit into a sandy color — about 2 minutes.
Add the hot milk, continuing to stir as the sauce thickens and bring it to a boil.
Stir in Parmesan cheese, and salt and pepper to taste.
When cheese is melted, remove from heat and let it cool for 2-3 minutes.
Toss into your favorite pasta and Enjoy!
