For a smoother sauce, use pre-shredded cheese and ensure it's at room temperature before adding it to the milk mixture. Experiment with different cheeses such as Gruyere, Monterey Jack, or pepper jack for a unique flavor twist. Add a dash of Worcestershire sauce or a pinch of cayenne pepper for an extra layer of complexity. If the sauce becomes too thick, add a splash of milk to thin it out; if it's too thin, simmer gently until it reaches your desired consistency. Serve immediately for the best texture and flavor. If making ahead, gently reheat over low heat, stirring frequently, and add a splash of milk to restore its creaminess.
