2.In a non-stick skillet, melt the butter over medium heat.

3.Pour the whisked eggs into the skillet and let them cook for a few seconds without stirring.

4.Using a spatula, gently stir the eggs, folding them over themselves to create soft curds.

5.Continue to stir and fold the eggs until they are just set but still slightly creamy.

6.Pour in the milk and continue to stir for another minute to incorporate the milk and make the eggs extra creamy.

7.Season the eggs with black pepper and add the shredded cheese if desired, stirring until the cheese is melted.
