"Excellent dish, be sure to have some friends on hand or else you will be eating for a week! The sauce is very thin when using the milk. I'll be using whipping cream instead next time and I'd recommend that you yyou do the same. Otherthen that, it is wonderful." - NomoreticketsYield: 8 Ready in 45 minutes

I added a little more flour to thicken the sauce up and it worked like a charm.
