Recipe View Gradually whisk in the milk, a little at a time, until the sauce reaches your desired consistency. Continue to cook and whisk for another 1 to 2 minutes, or until the sauce is smooth, glossy, and heated through. Do not boil.

For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a pinch of white pepper or a dash of hot sauce to the sauce.
If the sauce becomes too thick, whisk in a little more milk to thin it out.
This sauce is best served immediately. If you need to keep it warm, place the saucepan over a double boiler on low heat and whisk occasionally.

    I added a pinch of cayenne pepper for a little kick. It was amazing on my eggs Benedict!

  • Lavern Bednar

    This recipe is a lifesaver! I always struggled with traditional hollandaise, but this mock version is so easy and delicious.

    I was skeptical about using cream cheese, but it actually works! The sauce is incredibly creamy and has a great tang.
