2 Garlic Cloves, minced

2 Jalapeno’s seeded and diced

2 Chipotle Chiles diced  (canned in adobo sauce)

1 1/2 cups of half & half

5 ounces of Cream Cheese softened and cut up

1 Tablespoon yellow mustard

8 Ounces Smoked Cheddar Cheese shredded

8 Ounces of Sharp Cheddar Cheese shredded

Directions

In a medium pot over medium heat, add butter, shallots, garlic and jalapeno.  Saute until soft, about 4 minutes and add half and half and chipotle peppers.

Whisk in Cornstartch and allow everything to come to a simmer.  Stir in the cream cheese and the mustard.

Slowly start adding the shredded cheese.   Stir and add one handful at a time until the sauce comes together.  If it’s too thick, add a little half and half, not too much!

Serve immediately, you can keep warm in a slow cooker.  Yum!!
