Preparation Instructions
- 1
Cook the French Fries
Preheat your oven or fryer according to the instructions on the frozen French fries package. Cook the fries until they are golden brown and crispy.

Make the Pepper Jack Cheese Sauce
In a saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Once melted, whisk in the flour to create a roux, cooking for about 1-2 minutes until it turns a light golden color. Gradually whisk in the milk, ensuring no lumps form. Continue to whisk until the mixture thickens, about 3-5 minutes.

Add Cheese and Seasonings
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the pepper jack cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix until the cheese is fully melted and the sauce is smooth.

Combine and Serve
Once the fries are done, remove them from the oven or fryer and place them on a serving platter. Drizzle the pepper jack cheese sauce over the fries and sprinkle the mozzarella cheese on top. If desired, put the platter back in the oven for a few minutes until the mozzarella is melted. Serve hot.
