Ingredients
Scale
- 1 (10.75 ounce) package Velveeta cheese, cut into cubes
- 1 (15 ounce) can chili (no beans recommended for best texture)
- 1/4 cup evaporated milk or heavy cream
Instructions
- Place the cubed Velveeta cheese into a microwave-safe bowl or a small saucepan.
- Add the canned chili and the evaporated milk or cream to the bowl with the cheese.
- If using a microwave, heat on medium power for 2 minutes, then stir well. Continue heating in 30-second intervals, stirring after each, until the mixture is completely smooth and melted.
- If using a saucepan, heat over low heat, stirring constantly until the cheese is fully melted and the dip is uniform. Do not let it boil.
- Transfer the hot cheese dip to a serving bowl. Serve immediately with your favorite tortilla chips, crackers, or vegetables.
Notes
- For a slow cooker appetizer, combine all ingredients in a small slow cooker and cook on LOW for 1 hour, stirring halfway through until smooth. This is a great option for keeping the dip warm during parties.
- If you prefer a thicker dip, reduce the amount of evaporated milk slightly.
- This recipe is naturally gluten free, making it a safe choice for many guests.
