As you might have guessed, this was one of my gradma's recipes. It is for a cheese sauce that you make in bulk and freeze so that you have a sauce ready to grab for a quick meal.

• Shred cheese with electric shredder or grate. Place the shredded cheese in a blender.
• Pour boiling water into the blender and blend until smooth and cheese is melted. 
• Add remaining ingredients in order listed then mix. 
• Pour sauce into 8 ½ “ x 4 ½ “ loaf pan or aluminum ice cube tray. 
• Freeze until consistency of ice cream. 
• Cut into 16 one-inch cubes; remove to chilled tray. 
• Freeze until solid.
