Instructions
Heat a 10” or larger cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Melt butter in a skillet, add in heavy cream, stir to warm, but don’t boil. Slowly add in cream cheese in small chunks, stirring constantly, until cream cheese is melted and smooth.
After cream cheese is completely incorporated, add in the cheddar cheese, stirring constantly to combine until melted. Add in taco seasoning to taste*. Serve immediately.
Notes
If not using the taco seasoning, add the cheese then the salt and pepper to taste. This is perfect if you're serving the cheese sauce over broccoli and not a Mexican-inspired dish.
