Ingredients
  

  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 2 tbsp all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 cups milk warm
  • 8 oz dried beef chopped (rinse if very salty)
  • 1 pinch cayenne pepper
  • 4-6 slices bread toasted

Instructions
 

  • Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over low heat.
  • Sprinkle in the flour and whisk until smooth. Cook for 1–2 minutes while whisking occasionally to remove the raw flour taste.
  • Gradually add the warm milk a little at a time, whisking constantly to prevent lumps.
  • Increase the heat to medium-high and bring the mixture to a gentle boil while stirring continuously.
  • Continue cooking and stirring for 3–4 minutes until the sauce thickens and coats the back of a spoon.
  • Add the chopped dried beef and cayenne pepper. Stir well and cook for 1–2 minutes until heated through.
  • Toast the bread slices until golden brown.
  • Place the toasted bread on plates and ladle the creamed chipped beef over the top. Serve immediately while hot.

Notes

If the sauce becomes too thick, simply whisk in a splash of warm milk until it reaches your desired consistency.
