Smooth, creamy, and unapologetically melty. This two-ingredient sauce is ready for fries, burgers, vegetables, sandwiches, or anything else that could use a little more New School.

Ingredients
- 2 cups half-and-half
- 2 pounds (32 oz.) shredded New School American Cheese
Directions
Warm the half-and-half: Add the half-and-half to a medium saucepan and warm over medium-low heat until hot and steaming. Do not bring it to a full boil.
Make it melty: Gradually add the shredded New School American Cheese, whisking continuously until completely melted and smooth.
Keep warm: Reduce the heat to low and keep the sauce warm until ready to serve, stirring occasionally.
We believe in better
