1
Make the Potato Chips
Peel and slice the potatoes into thin rounds. Rinse them in cold water and pat dry. Heat vegetable oil in a deep fryer or large pot to 350°F (175°C). Fry the potato slices in batches until golden and crispy, about 3-4 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Season with salt to taste.
2
Prepare the Cheese Sauce
In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the American cheese, cheddar cheese, pepper jack cheese, and milk. Stir continuously until the cheeses are melted and the sauce is smooth. Add salt and pepper to taste.
3
Assemble the Nachos
On a large serving platter, layer the homemade potato chips. Drizzle the cheese sauce generously over the chips. Optionally, add more shredded cheese on top for an extra cheesy experience.
4
Serve
Serve the Ultimate Cheese Nachos immediately while they are hot and crispy. Enjoy with additional toppings like jalapeños, sour cream, or salsa if desired.
