Melt 4 tablespoons of the butter over low heat. Add the flour and stir to combine; Stirring constantly for about 3 minutes. Turn heat up to medium and whisk in the half-and-half, adding a little at a time. Wish until it thickens, about 5 minutes. Lower the heat, season with the salt, pepper and sugar and add the cheese.
