- Melt the butter in a pot over low heat, then add the flour. Cook and continuously stir until smooth.
- Add the heavy cream and 1/2 of the Gruyere cheese. Cook and stir for 1-2 minutes.
- Transfer 1/3 of the heavy cream mixture to a 10 or 12-inch round baking dish. Tilt it so the mixture covers the whole bottom of the dish.
