Prepare the sauce: In a saucepan, melt the remaining 1.5 tablespoons of butter. Add the garlic, pressed through a press, and the mustard. Stir the ingredients, then incorporate the flour, mixing with a whisk. Gradually pour in the milk, continuously and vigorously whisking until a smooth sauce forms. Bring to a boil, then remove from heat and stir in the grated cheddar cheese. Continue stirring until the cheese is fully melted.
