How to Make White Cheese Dip Tex Mex Style Queso Blanco

  1. Lightly grease a microwave-safe bowl with cooking spray or oil.
  2. Add 16 ounces of cream cheese, 8 ounces of Mexican blend cheese, 1/2 cup of milk, 1/4 cup of chopped green chilies, and 1/4 teaspoon of garlic powder to the bowl.
  3. Microwave on high for 1 minute, then stir well to combine and ensure the cream cheese is incorporated.
  4. Continue microwaving in 30-second intervals, stirring after each interval, until the cheese is completely melted and smooth. (This may take 2-3 minutes total depending on your microwave).
  5. For extra heat, stir in 4 ounces of shredded pepper jack cheese during the last 30 seconds of microwaving.
  6. Serve immediately with your favorite tortilla chips. Garnish with extra green chilies or cilantro, if desired.
