Sauce: melt butter in a large skillet.

Whisk in flour and spices. Stir and cook a few minutes.

Begin adding milk, a cup at a time. Whisking continually as it thickens.

Once all milk is added, add in the cheese (shredded or cubed if using American cheese). Whisk and cook until completely combined and thickened.
8

Pour sauce evenly over potatoes.
