Step 1

First, prepare a roux by heating a large pot or Dutch oven over medium/high heat. Add butter. When the butter is melted, add flour and whisk until the butter and flour form a crumble or paste.

Step 2

Slowly add milk to the pot, whisking constantly. Continue to whisk the roux over medium/high heat for about 4-6 minutes or until the roux thickens.

Step 3

When the roux is thick, remove from heat and add the Velveeta. Whisk until the Velveeta cheese has melted.

Step 4

Add granulated garlic, hot sauce, and salt and pepper to the cheese sauce. Mix well.

Step 5

Serve the Velveeta cheese sauce with tortilla chips, vegetables, or cooked pasta.
