If you too share a deep love and affinity for queso, this is the recipe for you. This recipe is authentic as Texas queso could probably get with one little twist -- CHILI! Texas chili, of course, so no beans!

The recipe starts with a quick-fix homemade taco-flavored chili. Rather than dumpling chili out of can (which has a soft, mushy texture) we are going to make our own. The flavor AND the texture are going to be far superior this way. Don't be initimidated by the idea of making your own chili.

This one comes together in just 15 minutes, with very minimal effort!

Once the chili is whipped up, we're going to add the cheese and turn it into the best chili cheese dip queso recipe you've ever laid taste buds on!

For this, you'll need velveeta. You can't make authentic, real-deal Texas Queso without it! In addition to the velveeta, we're also going to add some freshly grated cheddar. This will get us some seriously awesome cheese pulls and amp up the flavor.

This queso recipe is the perfect game day appetizer, but it's pretty much a guaranteed HIT anytime your entertaining! Enjoy!

Chili Cheese Dip Queso Ingredients:
1 pound lean ground beef (90/10)
1 (1-ounce) package taco seasoning
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 (10-ounce) can Rotel Original Diced Tomatoes and Green Chilis, drained
1 ¼ cup low-sodium beef broth
2 teaspoons cornstarch
1 (16-ounce) block Velveeta cheese, cut into 1" cubes
1 cup freshly grated Cheddar cheese

How To Make Chili Cheese Dip Queso:
Add the ground beef to a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sprinkle over the taco seasoning and chili powder and use a wooden spatula to work in the seasoning and break the meat apart. Cook for about 8-10 minutes, or until fully browned and cooked through.

Stir in the Rotel and the beef broth and allow the mixture to come to a simmer.

In the meantime, add the cornstarch, along with 1 teaspoon of water, to a small bowl and stir to make a slurry.

Pour all of the slurry into the beef mixture and stir. Reduce the heat to medium-low to maintain a simmer and simmer for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened.

Reduce the heat to low. Add the cubed Velveeta cheese and cheddar cheese to the beef and stir until melted. Serve with chips and enjoy!

Im trying this Thursday! After a 72 hour fast, Im sure it'll taste all that much better! 48 hours in, one more day to go without eating until I feast on that creamy, meaty, cheesy goodness! Thanks for sharing! 🤣👌🏻🤤❤

Thank you. We ate it at Chili's today on 03-10-2025, and we liked it -- just not worth what we are paying. And, we don't go out much anymore to restaurants, bez it's just TOO EXPENSIVE anymore. So, we're just going to make it at home, as our appetizer/s. Thus, I'm glad that Youtubers are sharing the recipes with us, and I think that many Youtubers will get rich by cracking the Restaurant's Secret Formulas for making their dishes.

I made Steak Quesadillas for dinner for my family one night, and I made your Chili Cheese as a dip.

Everyone loved it!

I make this every new year's eve and everyone loves it. I use hormels no bean chili instead and add can of Rotels with diced tomatoes and peppers n splash of milk. So many ways to use Velveeta for dip. This year I'm also making a Velveeta crab dip. Happy New Years 👍

[susanmarine]

is it possible this calls for a two pound block of velveeta? it's not as cheesy as I thought it would be!

[alanx]

I’m sorry but if you go to Mexico I’m fairly certain they aren’t using velveeta for queso 😂
