Notes
Cheese: I used Chihuahua cheese – it required a special trip to a different grocery store, but I love this cheese for its smooth-melting texture in Mexican recipes. It is not going to be elastic and stretchy like Mozzarella, and in my opinion, that makes it a better choice here. Dipping is easier. Pepperjack, Monterey Jack, or any other smooth melting cheese should work, too.
Thickness: If you want a thicker queso, use 3 tablespoons flour. If you want a thinner queso, use just 2 tablespoons. Adjust consistency by adding small amounts of milk once it all comes together.
