For an ultra-smooth queso, use a high-quality white American cheese from the deli counter, rather than pre-sliced cheese. Adjust the amount of jalapeños and cayenne pepper to suit your spice preference. If the queso becomes too thick, stir in a tablespoon or two of warm half-and-half to reach your desired consistency. Serve with warm tortilla chips, pretzel bites, or your favorite dippers. It's also fantastic drizzled over tacos, enchiladas, and grilled vegetables.
