Time 15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

Kosher salt
2 heads broccoli, cut into florets
5 tablespoons butter
2 green onions, sliced
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
3 cups milk
2 cups grated pepper jack cheese
4 ounces cream cheese, softened
1 teaspoon chili powder
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
Freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil and season with salt. Prepare a large bowl of ice water. Blanch the broccoli by throwing the florets into the boiling water for 30 seconds. With a slotted spoon, remove the florets to the ice water. When cool, drain and set aside. Keep cool in the fridge.
  • To make the sauce, melt the butter in a pot over medium heat. Add the green onions and cook for 2 minutes. Sprinkle in the flour, whisk to combine and cook until thickened, about 1 minute. Pour in the milk and heat until thickened, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the grated cheese, cream cheese, chili powder, cumin, 1/2 teaspoon salt and pepper to taste. Stir to melt. Taste and adjust the seasonings.
  • Serve hot as a dipping sauce with the cold broccoli.

These dippers were amazing! The broccoli was perfectly cooked and the dipping sauce was to die for. I'll definitely be making these again and again.

These dippers were a bit too greasy for my taste. I think I'll try baking them next time.

These dippers were just okay. The broccoli was a bit overcooked and the dipping sauce was too spicy for my taste.
