5 tablespoons butter, melted Add 5 tablespoons all-purpose flour, cook over low heat until bubbly.

Slowly add liquid from sauteed mushrooms, 1 cup heavy cream, and enough milk to make a total of 2 cups liquid. Continue cooking, stirring constantly, until mixture thickens. Add 1/2 teaspoon salt, a dash each of pepper and nutmeg. Add mushroom/onion mixture and heat together.
