Crock Pot White Queso Dip is made with queso blanco, milk, butter, diced green chilies, jalapeños, and special seasonings. So delicious!
MEXICAN RESTAURANT-STYLE CHEESE DIP
This Crock Pot White Queso Dip tastes just like what you get at your favorite Mexican restaurant. But if I can brag just a bit - I think it tastes even better! This is the ultimate party dip!
TIPS FOR MAKING QUESO DIP:
- Cooked and crumbled ground beef, chorizo or spicy sausage are all great additions if you want to "beef" up this recipe! Also, if you love this recipe, you should try my unique MEXICAN 7-LAYER DIP!
- Can't find Velveeta Queso Blanco? No problem! Just go to the deli counter at your grocery store and ask for two pounds of white American cheese. They do not need to slice it. Just ask for it in one big block.
- This can be made on the stove top. Just put all ingredients in a medium sauce pan, cover and heat on medium-low heat for about 20-30 minutes. Stir frequently until all ingredients are combined and cheese is completely melted and warm.
- I'm using a cast iron 1.5 quart "party crock" made by Hamilton Beach. I've linked a similar one I found on Amazon since I've been told the small cast iron crock is hard to find these days. I'm not sure that Hamilton Beach is making this exact product anymore. You can use any 1.5 - 2 quart mini slow cooker for this recipe.
INGREDIENTS NEEDED: (FULL RECIPE AT THE BOTTOM OF THE POST)
- VELVEETA queso blanco
- milk
- salted butter
- diced green chilies
- pickled jalapeños
- TACO SEASONING
- garlic powder
- tortilla chips, for serving
HOW TO MAKE WHITE QUESO DIP:
Cut cheese into cubes then place into a mini slow cooker.
Pour in milk and add butter.
Pour in can of diced green chiles.
Finely chop jalapeño peppers and add to 1.5 quart mini slow cooker (for more heat, just add more jalapeños.)
Add in taco seasoning and garlic powder.
Give it all a gentle stir and put the lid on. Turn it on low for about 2 hours. Stir occasionally. Or you can warm it up on high for about an hour, until cheese is completely melted (making sure to stir occasionally.)
Serve warm with tortilla chips or even taquitos for a fun meal!
Keep your slow cooker on the warm setting (or low). I like to keep a spoon in there so it can be stirred occasionally and so folks can serve themselves from the pot.

I am allergic to jalapenos. What would you suggest as a replacement in this recipe?
Julie
Could I use fresh jalapeño instead of pickled?

The only Hamilton Beach Party Crock I find online is stoneware. The one you're using is enameled cast iron. Is it possible Hamilton Beach once featured a cast iron version and now only offers it in stoneware? I love enameled cast iron.
Josie Wenger
I am only able to find Mexican velveeta cheese: how should I alter the recipe?
Gina
This sounds tasty! Could this be done in the microwave as opposed to a crock pot? Crock pots take up valuable counter space (although yours seems ideal!). I look forward to your response. Thanks for your time and for letting me know.

Hi Gina! I don't see why not! I haven't tested it yet so I couldn't tell you exact cooking times though.
Gina
Ms. Brandie, thank you for responding! This was great!
Alli
Added 1 lb of Chorizo sausage...sooo good!
Cheylyn
I Love your little crock pot, and how it looks like a mini Dutch oven!!! Where did you get that? Can't wait to try this recipe, too, but it definitely takes second place to that crock!
Becky
I have been around a long time, lol. I never knew there was anything but one color of Velveeta.
Chelsea Barber
I need to know what kind of measuring spoon that is! lol. I love it!! Will you respond via email? I'm not sure if I'll get notified of your comment or not. Thanks!
Suzanne Hanson
The measuring spoon is likely from The Pampered Chef. I have 2 different sizes that look exactly like that except different color (gray not black) and got mine in about 2005 so they must have updated them. They are awesome!
Janice Boutreis
you can get the measure spoon at bed and bath because thats where i got my.

Brandie @ The Country Cook
Hi Kathryn! Yes, that's exactly it! 🙂
