Cheese Sauce with a Mild Spicy Kick

This sauce is cheesy liquid gold with a slightly spicy kick to it. Since the day I came up with a way to transform a nasty bottle of processed cheese into an, “I can’t believe it is this good kind of cheese sauce” I’ve been making it this way. Now I’m so obsessed with it. Give it a try, it’s very simple to make.
