Ingredients:
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup crumbled blue cheese (such as Roquefort or Gorgonzola)
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 1 clove garlic (minced)
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
Instructions
- In a small saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter and sauté the minced garlic for about 1 minute until fragrant. Add the heavy cream and bring it to a gentle simmer.
- Stir in the blue cheese and Worcestershire sauce, and continue to cook, stirring often, until the cheese is melted and the sauce has thickened slightly, about 5 to 7 minutes.
- Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. Serve warm over steak, burgers, vegetables, or as a dip.
Notes

- For a chunkier texture, reserve a small portion of the blue cheese and stir it in at the end.
- This sauce can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and reheated gently.
