How to Make Homemade Cheez Whiz Copycat

  1. In a medium saucepan or double boiler, combine 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese, 1/2 cup milk, 1/4 cup mayonnaise, 1 tablespoon butter, 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce, and 1/4 teaspoon paprika.
  2. Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, until the cheese is completely melted and the sauce is smooth and creamy. This should take about 10-15 minutes. Adjust heat as needed to prevent scorching.
  3. Remove from heat and stir in a pinch of cayenne pepper (optional, for a little kick!).
  4. Serve immediately on crackers, vegetables, or use as a topping for your favorite dishes. Enjoy!
