If you love white cheese dip, or as we call it, that crack Mexican Cheese Dip, then you will want to watch how to make it!
Simple ingredients and in less than 15 minutes you will have your own version right at home for Taco Tuesday night.
I have so much to learn. I have never heard of white American cheese because I am not a cook, I am single and 65 years old. I doubt I will ever have another wife at my age. So I am trying to learn how to cook for myself. I always loved that dip from Mexican restaurants.
Yes! When you go to the grocery store, it’s in the deli section - just ask them for it!
I did EXACTLY what you said even down to the brand of cheese...it was soooo bomb. My whole family enjoyed it so much and it didn't have the after taste that some of the other brands have. Making it tonight again to go with our tacos and burritos. Thanks so much!
You are so welcome!
I’m here because me and my family just got Mexican and I really want more Queso
Dang you liked that fast
Me too.
Me 3.lol
Literally same

Land O’ Lakes white American cheese had been discontinued so I bought Boar’s Head. It’s more expensive and better quality.
I used mild chiles since my roommates don’t like spicy dip and used whipping cream instead of milk.
I’d put it up against any Mexican restaurant’s cheese dip I’ve ever had. Common sense but eat it as soon as you pull it off the stove top before it becomes too thick.
It tasted incredible!
First try with your recipe and it's fantastic. I used fresh & pickled jalapenos diced very fine for more heat and added a dash of cumin. *chef's kiss* It went perfectly with my leftover fajitas from the other night. I'll be experimenting more using your recipe as a base model. I eventually want to do a chori-queso dip in the near future. Thank you for this video
So glad you liked it! Your additions sound delicious
Chopping the chiles was a great idea. It's was very good to me. Thanks
Mar-Lin Austell glad you liked it!
Just a little tip: when raking your ingredients, use the back side of the knife. It dulls your blade when you use the sharp side. 🤗
WVgirl1 through&through thanks for the tip!
Thank you
American cheese to make Mexican cheese dip? 🤯
Gotta try this!
Ryan Nesler yep! I was skeptical too until I tried it! Could believe it!
Thank you for your recipe!
You’re welcome!
This is so good!!! I've made this several times now, and each time it is delicious. It's great whether I happen to have the chilis or not. The Mexican restaurant I love told me they use white American cheese, and I had tried to make the dip at home before. It never worked until I tried the method you recommend. I use medium heat on the stove, and I am still experimenting with the cheese to milk ratio. Thank you again for all the happy meals I've enjoyed with this dip!
So glad to hear you loved it too!
This is the best cheese dip I've ever had.
i’ve always used Monterey but just tried this with the white american and it was really good!
The white American is game changer!
I’m Mexican and my mom doesn’t even know how to make this lol! I made it a couple days ago watching your video and it taste amazing !! Thank you ☺️
So glad you liked it!
Cheese dip is an American mexican restaurant appetizer. This isnt somthing that comes from mexico or any hispanic culture.
I live in Korea and I'm DYING for some white queso dip, I hope the white American cheese slices they have here work :P I'll keep you posted...
Update.
IT WAS AMAZING!! :D We can't get those green chilis here, but I diced up pickled Jalapenos the same way, I used just sorta generic white American wrapped cheese slices and I also added in some Monterey jack and it was awesome :D I was honestly really skeptical about the sliced cheese working, but then the when I smelled it halfway through and it smelled exactly like the restaurant cheese I got really excited :)
I can't tell you how much I've missed this cheese, Thank you so much Jen, you're awesome :)
The best and easiest recipe thank you
I accidentally tripped over this secret (literally) about 12 years ago, I was leaving a local Mexican restaurant and the food delivery truck was parked in the back next to my vehicle. They had the ramp down and were unloading and I tripped over the corner of the ramp. The truck driver came over and apologized (I was fine, size 13 feet get in the way sometimes) and on the dolly was two cases of Land O Lakes white American. The next time I was in the restaurant I asked the waiter if that’s the cheese they used for the dip and he confirmed that it was…I went to the grocery store and the lady at the deli sold me a 2lb block…I experimented with milk, spices, chiles etc. and finally landed on using heavy cream with a dash of cayenne and the canned/diced green chiles. The only thing I do differently is that I make it in the microwave…literally done in 4 minutes.
That’s so awesome! I was shocked when I found out the truth! It’s also the cheese they use for the tacos also but shredded
@@jenaroundtheworld Crazy, right??
Thank you for the recipe. I’m about to go get the stuff now haha. I wonder if a little adobo sauce would be good in it.
Gerald Burges yes! That sounds amazing!
Awesome, need this recipe for dinner next week. Thanks!
I do the same and add 1/2 tsp of cumin. The cumin really makes the dip IMO.
Tim Rose I’ll have to remember that next time and give it a try!! Thanks!
Jen Sikora, now that I think of it, it may not be quite a 1/2 tsp. Cumin is so powerful, start with less or you’ll hate me for ruining your dip. Great video, keep up the awesome work!!
Omg I have been looking for this recipe and I think j just found the perfect one Ty Jen 😍
I buy the ready made dip but it just isn't the same. Can't wait to try this .. looks so good.
Hope you like it!
Gordos white restaurant style is AMAZING. It’s not exactly 100% to the kind you get from Mexican restaurants but I swear it’s 95%. And only like $3.50 for a tub.
Try evaporated milk. Reg milk has high moisture versus evaporated does not. This method prevents any separation once done incorporating together. Walking to the refrigerator to get leftovers to heat up with the regular milk method...well, you will see what I mean. N PS enjoyed this simple down to the point recipe 👍
Thanks for the tip!
Ohhhh!!! Looking for the American White Cheese here in Korea, but no luck!
Hmmmmmm
I dont really like American cheese but it probably melts really well though. But hey I definitely won't knock it till I try it though. Looks really good. Thanks for the video
That looks delicious! I can’t wait to try this!
TheKEDW you will love it!!! Thanks for watching!!!
Omg I love this recipe
So glad to hear you you liked it!
Thanks for the recipe! This turned out amazing.
So glad you liked it!
That looks great. I love that mexican cheese sauce.
Doug6714 thanks! It’s our favorite too!
Thank you Jen!
Thank you!
This is the bomb!!!!! Added canned jalapeños, cumin,salt and pepper!!!!!! Thank you so much!!!!
You are so welcome!
This is the best vid
Thanks!
Yum!!!
Cute curvy girl making the best stuff in the world. Priceless
Many restaurants use land o lakes white american extra melt cheese sauce. For their "authentic" dip.
Heh.
But doing it that way I like heavy cream better than milk.
Adds more richness .
Thanks for sharing that. I will give it a try next time I make it
@@jenaroundtheworld honestly ma'am , yours is likely superior to the pre-fab sauce land o lakes outs out.
You do your always exactly like I do mine. With the only exception that I often use heavy cream instead of milk. Or half cream and half milk etc with jalapeno relish instead of the chilies. Just depends on who I'm making it for.
Have you ever done a mexican lasagna video?
Those are wonderful. You can either use round tortillas and leave em whole, or cut them into shapes similar to a lasagna noodle and then just layer it as you would a lasagna with seasoned beef , and sometimes a layer of refried beans. Adding sour cream and other toppings if preferred afterwards.
I'm a huge fan of your channel. Great work .
Well thank you so much for those kind words. I’ve made Mexican lasagna but never posted it before or made a video so I’ll be sure to put that on the list for January!!
Ok
Thank you ma’am
You’re welcome!
Thanks so much I added parmasean garlic instead of garlic powder and it’s a hit.
Glad to hear you liked it! That sounds like a great addition!
Can you use normal American cheese? I don’t have any white American cheese 😔
It would turn into a yellow cheese sauce so it won’t have the same taste. You can give it a try though
Mam you should get you a big can of the green chilies and blend them into a paste then put them into a small Tupperware container to use.
Good idea
Instead of using hatch chilis I'd add another 8oz of pepperjack.
Low heat right? Because if not the milk will curdle?
Medium or low heat
@@jenaroundtheworld thank you🙏
I did that amount of milk, but it's too runny? I did the smaller amount you suggested
I just made this again and it was fine so I’m not sure what you did.
Something’s missing because mine just completely separated
What kind of milk should I use? Evaporated one?
Just regular milk
So the link to the cookware doesn’t work 😐
Some other person used velvtaa
Uh so stupid question cause I know the queso at the restaurants has the green things in it but does it affect the flavor if o don’t put them in I have a problem with textures of food and I don’t think I’d like them
Nope! You can totally leave them out and it’s just fine
@@jenaroundtheworld thank you
Could i make it in the crock pot??
I am sure you could
Could this be done in a crock pot ?
Yes I am sure it can
My cheese would not mix with the milk. It formed into a big cheese blob. What went wrong?
Sounds like you used mozzarella
American cheese isnt cheese. Any better/healthier options?
Sorry! That’s the cheese they use.
Can you do it in the microwave as well or do you only use the stove
U could technically use the microwave, but I wouldn’t recommend. It would evaporate the moisture as well as make it harder to stir. Stove top is always better when cooking anything even ramen noodles.
can i used sliced white american? it’s quite a bit cheaper & im on a college budget 😂
You can try it - it should work I think but then again, it may not. The deli cheese runs around $3 so I think it would be affordable
Just tried it with a whole pack of singles and it's just as good. So yes, it works
Will heavy whipping cream work
It should - any milk liquid should work find
@@jenaroundtheworld thank you 😊 I subscribe to any CZcamsr that replies lol keep up the great work and channel !
@@Dvenceshaus2 I try! Thank you!
Looks tasty. American cheese is different. Tfs
The white American cheese is what they use. Our local Mexican restaurant gave me their recipe :)
@@jenaroundtheworld I guess they a do it different. A friend of ours who is Mexican gave us his grandpa recipe it so tasty it's not with America. Well like my grandpa always say more than 1 way to skin a cat. Lol
I cannot make this cheese sauce it won't bind with the milk for some reason I think I'm using the wrong type of cheese
What kind of cheese did you use? I get the white American cheese from the deli section. I ask them to cut me a 1/2 pound block
@@jenaroundtheworld I keep trying to use the Mexican kind in the dairy. Im going to use the American next time
@@kyleperry1701 that’s not the kind which is why it is not working. You have to use the American cheese from the deli. Not the Mexican cheese from the dairy aisle.
I tried to make this and it doesn’t taste like my Mexican restaurant. 😢. Plus sauce is too chunky and I added milk and it still taste funny. I don’t know what kind of milk did you use? It’s a bummer. I tried yours so you know.
I use full fat milk. You have to use a whisk and make sure to get the cheese all completely melted. Sorry you did not like it
Could give me the ingredients make a recipe
Daniel Phyllis Snow the link for the recipe is in the description
Jen Sikora Thank you our preacher likes Mexican food I was wanting to ask him to supper
Daniel Phyllis Snow hope he likes it! You can leave the garlic powder out if that would be an issue. It still tastes amazing!
@@thegoose3519 hi
There is a Mexican isle? I didn’t know that
“The main ingredient in this recipe is WHITE AMERICAN cheese”💀
@@HISdudeNE55 that’s what they use!
@@jenaroundtheworld I’m not giving you a hard time. It’s just funny..
@@HISdudeNE55 right? I was stumped when the lady told me that.
What happen to the days of double boiler concept!!
The Hotone1 it doesn’t need to be in a double boiler because it’s not going to burn or scorch. Just needs to be heated and melted
Well block cheddar cheese doesn’t work for this 😢
I didn’t use block cheddar cheese. I used the white cheddar and you have to use the brand I used. It doesn’t melt the same if you get another kind.
@@jenaroundtheworld I know that’s not what you used. It’s just all I had . Lol but when I go back to the grocery store I’ll have to get the right stuff. Which brand did you use again? Thanks
Who's tried????????????? I'm looking for the real deal. Can't even be a tad bit diff.
I'm pretty sure that's not a half pound block of Land O Lakes looks more like a pound
It’s a half a pound
@@jenaroundtheworld I buy Land O'Lakes in slices at the grocery store and I only get about eight slices when they're all put together it's a lot smaller than that
@@drewsquickfix I bought this as a solid block in the deli and it is 1/2 lb.
This whole time I always thought it was some fancy goat milk and it’s WHITE AMERICAN????
Yep!
But mexicans aren't having America cheese shipped to them to make queso!!! This would work but it isnt authentic!!
It’s what they serve at the Mexican restaurants here. I’ve talked with a few servers
WHY DO YOU HAVE WATER BOILING THE WHOLE TIME YOU;RE DOOING THIS VIDEO?
I was making something else for the family.

None of your business
You got “picky eaters” in your home? I got a solution for that. Kick em out. Let me move in. I will never be picky. Plus I’ll do the dishes. Hahahaha
This is not mexican this is Belizean cheese dip.
It is what our Mexican restaurant serves.
