Alfredo Sauce

¼ pound butter

½ cup flour

1 tsp salt

1 tsp garlic powder

1-1/2 tablespoon chicken base

1-pint heavy whipping cream

1 quart milk

½ cups grated parmesan cheese

Dash of crushed red pepper optional

To make sauce, melt butter in heavy saucepan over medium heat. Add flour. Whisk until smooth. Add salt, garlic powder and chicken base. Stir. Add cream and milk. Stir and cook until thickened. Add ½ cup Parmesan cheese and cook 3 to five minutes. This makes a big batch. Could be cut in half to 2/3rds the amount if just serving it up, rather than in a casserole.
