AWESOME CHEDDAR CHEESE DIPPING SAUCE
This is an excellent recipe for dipping just about anything... veggies, bread, nachos, chicken fingers... you name it, and you can probably dip it. It's got a bit of a kick to it, and that's what makes it so yummy. Hint: When the weather gets warmer, I use less kick; when it gets colder I add more. So, you ready... Let's get into the kitchen.
