A delicious and creamy cheese dip with a spicy kick, perfect for parties or as a snack.
Set up a double boiler over low heat and add the shredded cheddar cheese and half of the half-and-half.
Using a double boiler prevents the cheese from burning and ensures a smooth melting process.
Stir the mixture continuously until the cheese begins to melt, adding more half-and-half as needed to achieve a smooth consistency.
Stirring constantly helps to evenly melt the cheese and prevents clumping.
Add the diced jalapeño to the melted cheese mixture, stirring to combine.
For a milder flavor, remove the seeds from the jalapeño before dicing.
Season the dip with cumin, salt, black pepper, and chili powder, adjusting to taste.
Taste as you go to ensure the seasoning is to your preference.
Serve the dip warm with tortilla chips or your choice of dippers.
Keep the dip warm in a slow cooker for serving at parties.
