Vegan Pub Style Beer Cheese Ingredients

You will need:

Vegan cream cheese – I like Kite Hill or Tofutti brand.
Vegan cheddar cheese – Daiya or Violife work well with this recipe because they melt smoother and easier than other brands I’ve tried.
Garlic – Fresh is best but you can also substitute 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder.
Beer – I used Yuengling lager although I think a pale ale or even a stout, if you want to go really bold, would work well here, too.
Cornstarch – An equal amount of arrowroot powder would also work.

How to make Vegan Pub Style Beer Cheese Dip:

It’s super easy; I would even dare say this recipe is fool-proof.

STEP ONE: First, the cream cheese, cheddar cheese, garlic, and beer go into the blender and are blended until smooth.

STEP TWO: Next, add the cornstarch and blend again until it is incorporated.

STEP THREE: Then pour into a prepared 5″ ramekin dish and bake at 350 degrees for 25-30 minutes.

FAQ

Can I serve this dip right away?
