Replace the cover and hold on “keep warm” for 10 minutes. We’ve found that the “keep warm” setting melts cheeses perfectly while keeping everything hot since the instant pot typically doesn’t handle dairy well unless on a low setting.

  1. I really am unhappy that so many of the “creamy” Instant Pot recipes call for cream cheese, which I’m not a big fan of. Can it be skipped in this recipe or is there a reasonable substitution?

    1. That’s a good question. I love cream cheese and my family (who are not fans) actually like it in these recipes since you don’t taste it as a separate ingredient. Is it the tang you don’t like? Or the texture? I suppose you could use a really creamy cheese (like white American cheese or mozzarella.) 🙂

      1. The taste of it is fine, but I find it to be too rich. I don’t like but a bite of cheesecake for the same reason. More than a bite or two and my stomach feels yucky for hours.
