Notes

Make sure to use room temperature ingredients for better mixing. Grate your own cheese for a smoother sauce; avoid pre-shredded cheese for best results. This cheese sauce is versatile and can be used on vegetables, nachos, and baked potatoes. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 4 days; reheat gently with added milk or cream. Experiment with flavors by adding things like jalapeños, bacon, or truffle oil for a twist!
