I got this recipe from a friend and I have not tried it yet but will. Velveeta is very expensive and I would like to find a still delicious alternative to that expense. I have been spending 7.99 for a 2lb block.
HOMEMADE VELVEETA
1 1/2lb grated cheddar
1 1/2c very hot water
1/2cup plus 1T instant dry milk
1/2 envelope unflavored gelatin (1 1/2t)
In blender, put 1/2 of the water and 3T of the milk, 1/2t of the gelatin, and whip until gelatin is desolved. Quickly add to the hot mixture 1/2lb of the cheddar. Whip till blended. Pour into a 8x4x2 1/2" loaf pan that has been lined with plastic wrap. Repeat this twice, till all ingredients are used. Cover pan with more plastic wrap and chill overnight before unmolding. Keep cold and slie as needed. Yield 2lbs.
