Instructions:
- Combine Ingredients: In a medium saucepan, add the Velveeta cheese, evaporated milk, pickled jalapeño brine, granulated sugar, garlic powder, and cayenne pepper. Set the pan over a medium-low heat.
- Melt and Mix: Stir the mixture continuously to avoid any cheese from sticking to the bottom of the pan. Keep stirring until the cheese is completely melted and the mixture is smooth. Taste your dip and, if desired, adjust the spiciness by adding more cayenne pepper or jalapeño brine.
- Serve and Enjoy: Once the cheese dip is smooth and fully combined, it’s ready to serve. Pour the hot nacho cheese into a bowl and serve with your favorite tortilla chips, fries, or even over nachos!
