Homemade Nacho Queso Dip
This Homemade Nacho Queso Dip blows away any store-bought cheese dips. No processed anything here. Just real, natural ingredients that taste unbelievably delicious! A surprise ingredient keeps this dip smooth and velvety for days and it can warm all Super Bowl night long in a fondue pot!
INGREDIENTS
- 8 oz block good quality sharp cheddar cheese, shredded yourself
- 12 oz evaporated milk
- 1 TB cornstarch
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 1/2 tsp ground cumin
- 1/4 – 1/8 tsp cayenne pepper, depending on desired heat
- Optional: milk for thinning sauce as needed and toppings as desired
INSTRUCTIONS
- Off heat, place all ingredients in a medium saucepan and stir to combine well. Be sure cornstarch is fully dissolved. Turn heat on medium and stir until mixture is completely melted and smooth. Adjust seasonings to taste, if needed. If needed, thin out sauce with a splash of milk and whisk to incorporate.
- Keep sauce warm to serve (a small fondue pot or occasional microwaving/stirring will do the trick.) Sauce will thicken some as it cools but should remain soft.
