Notes

Makes about 1 ½ cups sauce.
It isn't necessary to grate the cheese, but it will melt faster if grated. Grate your cheese at home instead of buying pre-shredded cheese. The bags of pre-shredded cheese have extra ingredients (like starches) added to them.
If the stove or pan is too hot, you could scorch the cheese.
If you make this keto cheese sauce recipe ahead of time, store it in an airtight container (like a mason jar). It will keep for up to a week in your fridge.
