In a large sauté pan, cook the butter and onions on medium-low for 12-15 minutes, until onions are lightly browned. Don’t rush this step; it makes all the difference when the onions are well cooked.

Sprinkle the flour into the pan, whisk in, then add the salt and pepper. Cook for 2-3 minutes. Add the hot chicken stock and Cognac, and cook uncovered for 4-5 minutes until thickened. Add cream and serve.
