This Cheddar Cheese Sauce recipe is very easy to make and can be made with your favorite type of cheddar cheese, whether it be sharp, extra sharp, white cheddar or mild. This tasty cheese sauce can be used with a large variety of foods. For example, Golden Onion Burgers uses this
 

cheese sauce as a topping over grilled ground beef patties to add flavor and moistness. Other ways you can use this sauce include serving it over vegetables such as broccoli, cauliflower, brussel sprouts and many others. It is also delicious drizzled over baked potatoes along with some bacon bits and diced chives or green onions.

 

If you prefer a more mild cheese sauce with some Parmesan cheese mixed in, you might be interested in LoveThatFood's Mild Cheese Sauce recipe. On the other hand, if you enjoy a little "kick" in your sauce, you can add 1/8 teaspoon of cayenne pepper to this cheese sauce recipe. This will not necessarily

overpower it with spice, but will give it more distinct flavor. When this sauce sits for a while, it might thicken a little. To thin, simply add a little milk at a time while you reheat, and stir until you reach desired consistency. Leftover cheese sauce can be stored in the refrigerator and reheated when ready to use (again, using a little milk to thin if needed).
