5 Minute Nacho Cheese Sauce image

This rich and tangy nacho cheese sauce only takes about 5 minutes to make and uses only real, simple ingredients.

Provided by Beth - Budget Bytes

Categories     Appetizer     Snack

Time 5m

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 Tbsp butter ($0.22)
2 Tbsp flour ($0.02)
1 cup whole milk ($0.30)
6 oz. medium cheddar, shredded (about 1.5 cups) ($2.25)
1/4 tsp salt ($0.02)
1/4 tsp chili powder ($0.02)

Steps:

  • Add the butter and flour to a small sauce pot. Heat and whisk the butter and flour together until they become bubbly and foamy. Continue to cook and whisk the bubbly mixture for about 60 seconds.
  • Whisk the milk into the flour and butter mixture. Turn the heat up slightly and allow the milk to come to a simmer while whisking. When it reaches a simmer, the mixture will thicken. Once it's thick enough to coat a spoon, turn off the heat.
  • Stir in the shredded cheddar, one handful at a time, until melted into the sauce. If needed, place the pot over a low flame to help the cheese melt. Do not overheat the cheese sauce.
  • Once all the cheese is melted into the sauce, stir in the salt and chili powder. Taste and adjust the seasoning as needed. If the sauce becomes too thick, simply whisk in an additional splash of milk.

HOW TO MAKE NACHO CHEESE SAUCE | ALLRECIPES

Estimated Reading Time 3 mins
  • First, we'll make a quick white sauce with butter, flour, and cold milk. Over medium heat in a sauce pan, melt 1/4 cup of butter.
  • Whisk in 3 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon of flour, cooking the flour in the butter and stirring constantly for about 3 or four minutes.
  • Slowly drizzle in 3 cups of cold milk. Start slowly, whisking constantly. After you've added about half the milk by slow drizzle, go ahead and pour in the rest.
  • Next, it's spice time. Chef John uses four kinds of powdered chili peppers -- 1/4 teaspoon each of ground dried chipotle pepper, ancho chile pepper, cayenne pepper, and paprika.
  • Reduce the heat to low. Add your freshly shredded cheese. Chef John uses a secret blend of three cheeses. Now, it's critical that the heat be on the lowest setting here.
  • Serve your homemade nacho cheese sauce with pickled jalapeno rings and, of course, tortilla chips. Or transform your delicious cheese sauce into full-blown nachos!
