My Unique 3 Cheese Alfredo Sauce

[apollymi]

 So, this is another recipe I picked up from my Grandmother, but I embellished it a good deal. This recipe is why I always have plain cream cheese on hand. This is wonderful on pasta, vegetables, and (I'm told) chicken. It can also be used as a cheap fondue to dip toasted bread in. If you are using it as a fondue, add a drop or two more of hot sauce.

Ingredients:

• 2 Tbsp butter or margarine
• 6 oz cream cheese
• 1/2 cup sharp Cheddar cheese
• 1/4 cup grated Parmesan Cheese
• 1-2 Tbsp onion powder (or to taste)
• 1-2 Tbsp garlic powder (or to taste)
• 3 drops Louisiana hot sauce
• 3/4 cup milk

Directions:
In a medium saucepan over medium-high heat, melt butter. When the butter is melted, add cream cheese. Stir until smooth.

Add Cheddar Cheese, Parmesan Cheese, onion powder, and garlic powder. Add 3 drops Louisiana hot sauce. Stir until smooth.

Add 3/4 cup milk. Stir until smooth. Serve hot.

Can be substituted:
If you don't have access to Louisiana hot sauce, a few dashes of paprika should work about the same.
