Ingredients

1 tablespoon Butter
2 Cloves Garlic minced
⅓ cup White Onion finely diced (about 1 small onion)
12 ounces Evaporated Milk
1 tablespoon Cornstarch
8 ounces Cheddar Cheese shredded
8 ounces White Cheddar Cheese shredded (or more regular cheddar)
4 ounces Cream Cheese cubed before added
½ teaspoon Garlic Powder
½ teaspoon Onion Powder
¼ teaspoon Cumin
¼ teaspoon Salt
1-3 tablespoon Milk to adjust consistency

Toppings

Cilantro chopped
1 Roma Tomato diced
Jalapeno sliced

Instructions

Melt the butter in a medium to large saucepan (or skillet) over medium to high heat.
Saute the garlic and onion until translucent.
Whisk in the evaporated milk and cornstarch until mostly smooth.
Turn heat to low and add in the shredded cheese and cubed cream cheese, continue whisking until smooth again.
Stir in all of the spices.
Add in more milk, 1 tablespoon at a time until you reach your desired consistency.
Serve and top with desired toppings!

Notes

Store in the refrigerator and warm up in the microwave. If too thick after storing and reheating, stir in a little milk to thin the consistency.

The dip will thicken as it cools.
