Garlic Butter Sauce

I was searching through Allrecipes online looking for a butter garlic sauce. Someone had adapted another recipe and came up with this one. It was awesome and sooooo simple. I hope you try it and enjoy!

1/3 cup butter
1 1/2 cup milk
1 tablespoon flour
4 cloves garlic, crushed
1/4 tsp. dried basil
2 tsp. dried oregano
salt and pepper to taste

In a small sauce pan melt butter, add garlic and saute until cooked. Whisk flour into milk. Add milk and flour mixture into butter. Add dried oregano and dried basil and stir until heated through and slightly thicker. Mixture will still be thin though. Toss with a pound of pasta.
