I made it this afternoon. It does go together quickly if you get everything prepared ahead of time. Great flavor but because you are using “real cheese”, the texture is slightly “grainy” but delicious. Certainly worth trying.

We found the cream cheese made it taste very Alfredo-y. We added some taco seasonings which seemed to help but still did not taste like queso to us. Was overall just a bit weird tasting, I would maybe try it on pasta if I made it again.

This was such a good recipe! The kids really wanted to try homemade queso and we discovered there are quite a few ways to make it but we went with your recipe because 1. Quality, real ingredients and 2. We had everything on hand for this one, lol! We did have a little curdling happen with the cream cheese once all of the cheese had slowly been incorporated in, but we just stirred vigorously for a minute or so in med-low and it brought it all back together. We also addded just a little too much extra milk prematurely and ended up with queso on the runnier side, but it was still great and now we’ll know for next time. We used sharp cheddar and Monterey Jack which was a great combo, a little more punchy than traditional queso, but tasty. We also halved the recipe and it made a great amount! Enough for a side with tacos for dinner, and tomorrow for lunch, and at least another meal/snack after for a family of 5.

In reply to Stephanie. I'm not sure how well this will freeze, sorry!

In reply to Mary Anne Simons. I haven't tried it. I recommend this best as written. If you try it, let me know how it turns out for you!

In reply to Lea. I don't think coconut milk will get you the same consistency or flavor. I recommend this recipe as written.

This recipe looks absolutely delicious and I’m going to get the ingredients for it when I get more groceries. I never get whole milk, can I use coconut milk instead? Or leave it out all together? Or water? Thank you.

Hi Kate, do you think this would work in an electric fondue pot? I can’t wait to try this! I love every recipe of yours that I use.
