Keto Cheese Sauce
- 2 ounces, weight Cream Cheese
- 1 cup Freshly Shredded Cheddar Cheese
- 1/3 cups Heavy Cream Plus 3 Tablespoons, Divided
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Cumin
- 1 teaspoon Chili Powder
- In a small bowl, add all ingredients except 3 tablespoons heavy cream. Leave out the chili powder and cumin if you want a plain cheese sauce. Microwave on high for 30 seconds. Stir and microwave on high for another 30 seconds. Cheese should be smooth.
- Stir in remaining 3 tablespoons heavy cream to make sauce smooth and creamy. Serve.
- Notes:
- If this gets cold, be careful re-heating. Reheat very slowly, about 15 seconds at a time. Too much stirring and too much heat will cause it to split. It really cannot be saved after it splits.
- This should keep in the refrigerator for 5-7 days.
- I am a fan of pre-shredded cheese. You may have a better result when you grate the cheese yourself for this recipe.
