Instructions
- Heat olive oil over medium heat in a large, deep pan.

- Add milk to the pan, and allow to heat until just beginning to boil.
- Slowly add the cheese, one small handful at a time, stirring until melted.

Notes
- Tip: This dip is best when eaten warm, right after cooking. Melted cheese does not save well! If you have to reheat it, I suggest adding a bit of extra milk or water first. Then heat in the microwave, stirring every 30 seconds, until warmed.
