I tried making this last night and had an issue with the sauce. After the milk was warmed the cheese didn't melt properly, it clumped and did not blend into the sauce. This may have been something I did. I will come back later and try making this again. I ended up removing the cheese and adding some processed cheese to the warmed milk.
