Beer Cheese Dip

Beer Cheese Dip

Who doesn’t love a hot Cheesy dip?! This Beer Cheese Dip is tangy with tons of flavor and is so easy to make. It’s a crowd pleaser even when the crowd is just you! I suggest using a Beer you enjoy drinking and if Beer is not your thing then just add more Plant Milk in its place.

Serves 4-6
