Instructions
- Ensure the shredded cheese is at room temperature. In a medium bowl, use an electric mixer at low speed to blend the cheese.

- Transfer the cheese mixture to a fondue pot or a medium saucepan over low-medium heat.
- Heat the mixture, stirring frequently, until it is melted and smooth.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the cornstarch and 2 tablespoons of cold water to create a slurry.
- Pour the slurry into the melted cheese mixture. Continue to cook and stir until the fondue thickens and begins to bubble, about 1-2 minutes.
