CP - cookie this was our My Kitchen Rules Grand Final dish, and the judges were truly impressed. Tonight we give you (drum roll) ...a thumbs up! and this little number gets my tick for Family Favourites. Well done.

conversions:
1/3 cup flour = 50g
2 cups milk = 500g
1 cup grated cheese = 80g

When making the bechamel sauce, and adding the milk - cooked it at 90oC until the sauce thickened which was approx 6 mins, Speed 4. (Didn't simmer for the extra minute either)
