Instructions

  1. Melt two teaspoons of butter in medium-sized frying pan. Add onions, cook until they become translucent.
  2. Place the cheese and heavy cream together in a medium-sized pan and heat over low-medium heat until the cheese melts. 
  3. After the cheese has melted, add green chilis and onions and stir well. 

Notes

  • I suggest that you use heavy cream, the queso will reheat better than when using milk.
  • You can serve this in a fondue pot at a party to keep it warm.
