Preheat oven to broil and coat 8 4-inch ramekins with butter. Fill large pot with water and
bring to boil over high heat. Cook pasta according to package directions; drain. Set aside.
Melt 1 tablespoon butter in medium heavy-bottom pot over medium-high heat. Add
sausage and cook, breaking up into large crumbles with a wooden spoon as it cooks.
Cook for about 5 to 8 minutes, until sausage is cooked through and begins to brown. Stir
in green onions and cook until tender, about 1 minute. Transfer to a paper towel lined
plate.
Melt remaining butter in the same pot over medium-high heat. Add flour and cook, stirring
frequently, until no lumps remain, about 1 minute. Whisk in milk and simmer, stirring
occasionally, until thick, about 4 to 6 minutes.
