Prep Time: 5 minutes
Cook Time: 10 minutes
Total Time: ~15 minutes
Servings: About 4–6 (depending on how cheesy you go 😏)

    Ingredients

    • 1 cup whole milk

    • 2 cups cheddar cheese, shredded

    • 2 tablespoons butter

    • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour

    • 1/2 teaspoon chili powder

    • 1/2 teaspoon paprika

    • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder

    • Salt, to taste

    Instructions

     

    1. Make the Roux
      In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat.
      Whisk in the flour and cook, whisking constantly, for about 1 minute to cook off the raw flour taste and form a smooth roux.

    2. Add the Milk
      Slowly pour in the whole milk, whisking constantly to prevent lumps.
      Continue cooking and whisking for 2–3 minutes, until the mixture begins to thicken.

    3. Melt the Cheese
      Reduce the heat to low.
      Add the shredded cheddar cheese to the saucepan and stir until the cheese is completely melted and the sauce is smooth.

    4. Season the Sauce
      Add the chili powder, paprika, garlic powder, and salt to taste.
      Stir well until all seasonings are fully incorporated and the sauce is evenly colored and flavored.

    5. Serve
      Remove the saucepan from the heat.
      Serve the nacho cheese sauce warm with nachos, tacos, burritos, fries, or any dish that needs a cheesy boost.
