  • 1-8oz. pkg. cream cheese
  • 1/2 block Velveeta cheese
  • 2 cans evaporated milk

In saucepan over low-medium heat, place milk and cheeses until cheese is melted. Once all is melted and smooth you may add more milk if you like it thicker. I usually wait until I add the broccoli, sometimes the water from the broccoli is enough.
