- Lower the heat and stir in the shredded cheese. Continue stirring until the cheese has fully melted and the sauce is smooth and creamy.
- If you’re using Dijon mustard or garlic powder, add them at this point, and stir to combine.
4. Season:
- Taste the cheese sauce and season with salt and pepper to your liking. If you want more flavor, you can add a pinch of cayenne pepper, paprika, or a splash of hot sauce for some heat.
5. Serve:
- Pour the creamy cheese sauce over your freshly cooked fries or serve it as a dipping sauce on the side.
Tips:
- Make it thicker or thinner: If you want a thicker cheese sauce, add more cheese or let it cook for an extra minute. For a thinner sauce, add a little more milk.
- Flavor variations: You can try adding cooked bacon bits, caramelized onions, or jalapeños for extra texture and flavor.
- Storage: This cheese sauce can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat it gently on the stovetop, adding a little more milk if it thickens too much.
Enjoy your creamy cheese sauce with crispy fries, and feel free to customize it to your taste!
