  2. Meanwhile, in a saucepan over medium heat, melt butter; blend in cheese.
  3. Stir in whipping cream; heat almost to a boil, whisking constantly.
  4. Reduce heat to low.
  5. In small bowl, beat eggs slightly.
  6. Stir a small amount of hot cream mixture into the egg and whisk vigorously; pour egg mixture into saucepan.

Pro Tip

Pay special attention to Step 6 because it tempers the eggs. This gradually increases the temperature, so the eggs don’t cook and clump together.
