The Best Queso Cheese Sauce image

Super easy and delicious. Recipe courtesy of www.aspicyperspective.com. I doubled the recipe, and I added quite a few more jalapenos, but I'll post it as written.

Categories     Cheese

Time 25m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 tablespoon butter
1 shallot, diced
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 -2 jalapeno, seeded and diced
2 chipotle chiles, diced (canned in adobo sauce)
1 1/2 cups half-and-half or 1 1/2 cups evaporated milk
1 tablespoon cornstarch
4 ounces cream cheese, cut into cubes and softened
2 teaspoons yellow mustard
8 ounces smoked cheddar cheese, shredded
4 ounces sharp cheddar cheese, shredded

Steps:

  • Place a medium pot over medium heat. Add the butter, shallots, garlic, and jalapeno.
  • Saute for 3 to 4 minutes to soften, then add the half and half and chipotle peppers.
  • Whisk in the cornstarch. Allow the mixture to come to a simmer, so the half and half can scald (not necessary with evaporated milk) then lower the temperature to medium-low.
  • Stir in the cream cheese and mustard.
  • Slowly start adding the shredded cheese.
  • Stir and add by the handful, until the sauce comes together. if you prefer your cheese sauce a little thinner, add an extra splash of half and half. Serve immediately, or keep warm in a slow cooker or fondue pot.
