A creamy, Velveeta-like queso dip perfect for game days and parties. This recipe yields a silky smooth cheese dip with a hint of spice, served with tortilla chips.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1/2 cup chopped yellow onion
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1 (10 ounce) can Rotel diced tomatoes and green chilies, undrained
  • 1 (15 ounce) can evaporated milk
  • 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, cut into cubes
  • 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon cumin
  • Salt to taste

Instructions

  1. Melt butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and cook for 1 minute more until fragrant.
  2. Stir in the undrained Rotel tomatoes, evaporated milk, and cream cheese cubes.
  3. Cook, stirring constantly, until the cream cheese is completely melted and the mixture is smooth. Do not boil.
  4. Stir in chili powder, cumin, and salt to taste.
  5. Serve immediately with tortilla chips.

Notes

  • For a spicier dip, add a pinch of cayenne pepper.
  • If the dip becomes too thick, stir in a tablespoon or two of milk until desired consistency is reached.
  • This queso can be kept warm in a slow cooker on the “warm” setting.
