This is a very, very tasty fondue recipe if I ever had one! I'm on a fondue kick right now so ive been experimenting with different blends. I had been on the hunt for a great cheddar fondue recipe as I'm not sold on Swiss fondue just yet. This one sounded simple, minimal ingredients, and reasonably priced ones at that. I halved this recipe using 8oz extra sharp Cabot white cheddar 8oz montery jack, about 1 TSB cornstarch, half a Bud Light, 1 clove garlic smashed, seasoned with cayenne, garlic powder, sea salt, worchestershire. Texture was silky creamy throughout, stayed that way the entire time, hugged my dippers perfectly (dipper's; pretzel bread, asparagus, granny Smith apples, brocolli, mushrooms, summer sausage. I love this stuff! Will entertain with this recipe. Thanks Neely's!

I loved this recipe, made it for Christmas day snack, did not add as much garlic or the peppers but it was still very easy and delicious and my family went crazy, served with bread, peppers, mushrooms, sausage, and pretzels... It was a hit. Thank you

I made this recipe without the chipotle peppers, and it was still delicious. Since I left out the chipotle flavor, I decided to add a dash of nutmeg, mustard powder, and cayenne pepper. If you use a tasty beer and quality cheeses, it will not disappoint!
