Once melted, add 4 ounces of softened cream cheese to the pan.

Mix the butter and cream cheese until smooth and creamy.

Add 1 cup of table cream to the mixture and stir until combined.

If the mixture is too thick, add a little whole milk or 1/4 cup of pickled jalapeno juice for flavor.

Once everything is combined and creamy, add 4 ounces of shredded Monterey Jack cheese.

Continue to mix until the cheese is melted and the mixture is creamy.

Optionally, add additional ingredients like drained Rotel, green chilies, ground beef, or ground chorizo to customize the queso.
