 Ingredients List

  • 1 (2-lb.) block sharp Cheddar cheese, shredded
  • 1 small onion, minced
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1/2 teaspoon hot sauce
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground red pepper
  • 1 (12-oz.) bottle amber beer, at room temperature
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Garnish: thyme sprig

 Directions

This recipe makes quite a lot, but it can be frozen for up to a month. It fits perfectly into 4 (10-oz.) ramekins. Try it with chips, over French fries, hot dogs, and chili too.

Directions:

1. Beat together first 5 ingredients at low speed with a heavy-duty electric stand mixer until blended. Gradually add beer, beating until blended after each addition. Beat at medium-high speed 1 minute or until blended and creamy. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Cover and chill 2 hours. Garnish, if desired. Store in an airtight container in refrigerator up to 2 weeks.

Grilled Beer-Cheese Sandwich:

Spread 1 tsp. softened butter evenly on 1 side of 2 bread slices. Place bread slices, buttered sides down, on wax paper. Spread 1/4 cup Beer-Cheese Spread onto 1 side of 1 bread slice. Top with remaining bread slice, buttered side up. Cook sandwich in a nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat 3 to 5 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cheese is melted.
