Ingredients
The following ingredients have 2 Servings
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 tablespoons flour
- 1 cup milk (use whole milk for richer flavor)
- 8 ounces melty cheese
- 2-3 tablespoons pickled jalapeno juice
- Pinch of salt (optional, if desired)
Instruction
- Heat a sauce pan or small pot to medium heat. Add the butter and melt it.
- Stir in the flour and stir continuously for 2-3 minutes to form a roux.
- Stir in the milk and allow to simmer. It will bubble just a bit around the edges.
- Reduce the heat to low, then stir in the cheese a bit at a time. Continue stirring until it all melts through.
- Stir in the pickled jalapeno juice (and some of the pickled jalapenos, too, if you want!). Keep stirring until the nacho cheese sauce is nice and smooth.
- Taste and adjust for salt, then serve with tortilla chips!
