Tips:
*Buy cheese in the deli section and ask for one big block of whole milk white American cheese.
*Add more or less milk to get the "queso" consistency you desire. You could thin with a bit of water, although it can dilute the flavor.
*This dip works well served in a dip-sized crockpot. Stir it often to prevent the cheese from developing a film.
