Warmed up it makes a great dip for chips. Can be also be spread on crackers when taken straight from the refrigerator. The kind of American cheese you use will have a great effect on the outcome of this dip. I use Kraft Deli Deluxe American cheese when making this. Don't use the kind of cheese that consists of the individually wrapped slices. It tastes too much like plastic.
