Cheese Dip Recipe 4: Mexican Cheese Dip

This dip makes about eight servings.


Ingredients:

1 tablespoon butter


½ cup milk or as needed


1 pound Colby jack cheese shredded finely


2 cans green chilies chopped finely (about 4 ounces each)


2 teaspoons cumin


2 teaspoons garlic powder


2 teaspoons onion powder


Cayenne pepper to taste


Tortilla chips

Method:

Place a medium saucepan over low heat and add cheese, milk, and butter. Stir frequently and cook until cheese is thoroughly melted. Stir in cumin, garlic powder, onion powder, and green chilies. If a slightly spicier taste is desired then substitute jalapeños for the chilies and add another can. Sprinkle cayenne to taste. Add milk if the dip has gotten too thick. Heat through while stirring and serve immediately. This can be held in a Crockpot and keep warm for easy serving convenience.
