Gradually stir in milk. Cook, stirring constantly, until thickened. Add
cheese and continue stirring until cheese is melted. Do not overcook.

Divide broccoli spears into 6 portions, splitting large stalks as

broccoli portions on and parallel to narrow end of each ham slice,
extending flower ends over edges of ham. Roll as for jellyroll with
broccoli in the center of each rollup.

Arrange rollups in a baking dish with seam side down. Pour sauce over
rollups. Bake until sauce is bubbly, about 20 minutes.
