Notes
- To reheat: transfer the cold queso back into a saucepan. Heat over low/medium. Add more whole milk as needed and mix until smooth and creamy.
- As queso sits, it will thicken. We recommend serving it in a slow cooker on low or keeping it right in the saucepan and reheating every so often on the stovetop to make sure it stays creamy.
