  • Mix everything together and then cover the slow cooker.
  • Cook on low for 1.5 to 2 hours stirring every 15-30 minutes to be sure the edges don’t burn. We recommend NOT cooking this on high as it can easily burn.
  • When all the cheese is melted and smooth, stir and turn the slow cooker to warm.
