Description
This restaurant-style white queso is dangerously addictive—you’ve been warned! Whether you choose the easy slow cooker method or the quick double boiler version, you’ll have creamy, dreamy queso ready in no time.
Ingredients
The Essentials:
1 lb white American cheese (deli-sliced is best—avoid pre-shredded!)
⅔ cup milk or half-and-half (half-and-half makes it extra rich)
3–4 tbsp canned green chiles or jalapeños (mild or hot—your call!)
Flavor Boosters (Optional but Recommended):
1 tsp cumin (adds that authentic depth)
1 tsp chipotle powder (for smoky heat)
Pinch of garlic powder (secret flavor enhancer)
Instructions
🍲 Slow Cooker Method (Best for Parties)
Add everything to your slow cooker (cheese torn into pieces).
Cook on LOW for 1-2 hours, stirring occasionally.
Whisk until smooth – if too thick, add milk 1 tbsp at a time.
🔥 Double Boiler Method (Fast & Foolproof)
Simmer water in the bottom of a double boiler.
Heat milk + spices in the top pot until warm.
Add cheese gradually, stirring constantly until melted.
