The Official ILoveNachoCheese.com Recipe
Serving Size: Enough for one bowl of nachos (1-2 persons)
Ingredients:
1 1/2 tbsp. butter
1 tbsp. corn starch
1/2 cup milk
1 oz. cream cheese, cubed
1 cup sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
1/8 cup monterey jack, shredded
1/2 tsp. Busha Browne's Pukka Hot Pepper Sauce. (Any habanero/scotch bonnet pepper sauce will do. We recommend anything with a "use with descretion" warning on the bottle.)
1/2 tsp. chili powder
1/4 tsp. paprika
Directions:
In a small saucepan over low-medium heat, melt butter and stir in corn starch.
Pour in the milk, add cream cheese, and continue to stir until mixture is fully incorporated.
While stirring mix in cheddar and jack cheeses, chili powder, paprika, and hot pepper sauce.
Continue to stir until cheese has melted and all ingredients are well blended.
Pour over tortilla chips.
I couldn't wait until Saturday; I had to make it tonight. IT WAS AMAZING! The best thing about it is the cheese taste so fresh and has a bit of a zest to it. Compared to jar or canned cheese you get from the grocery store, this recipe is hands-down a winner. It's quick and easy to make also, took me just a few minutes and the whole family enjoyed it. We also dipped our sandwich bread into the cheese which was tasty!
