Method

Main Bowl

  1. 1

    Melt butter and start roux

    In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add flour and whisk to form a light roux; cook 1 minute.

  2. 2

    Add liquid and heat

    Slowly whisk in the milk and beer or broth (if using) until smooth. Heat until just simmering.

  3. 3

    Melt and blend cheese

    Lower heat and gradually add the cheddar, mozzarella, and cream cheese, stirring until fully melted and smooth.

  4. 4

    Season the sauce

    Stir in garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Simmer gently 3–5 minutes until thick and glossy. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.

  5. 5

    Serve warm

    Transfer the sauce to a warmed serving bowl or fondue pot and keep warm over low heat for dipping.

Dipping Items

  1. 6

    Prepare bread

    Cut bread into 1-inch cubes and toast on a sheet pan at 350°F (175°C) for 5–7 minutes until lightly golden.

  2. 7

    Prepare vegetables

    Blanch broccoli florets in boiling salted water for 2 minutes, then plunge into ice water and pat dry. Trim carrot sticks.

  3. 8

    Prepare apples

    Slice apples into wedges.

  4. 9

    Arrange for serving

    On a large platter, arrange the dipping items around the warm cheese bowl for easy scooping.
