Follow The Directions

01

Step
7 mins

In a medium saucepan, whisk together the shredded Cheddar cheese, flour, and heavy cream. Cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until the cheese is completely melted and the mixture forms a smooth, sauce-like consistency. (Approximately 5-7 minutes)

02

Step
20 mins

Remove the saucepan from the heat and allow the cheese sauce to cool to room temperature. (Approximately 15-20 minutes)

03

Step
10 mins

While the cheese sauce is cooling, place the bacon slices in a large, cold skillet. Cook over medium heat, turning occasionally, until the bacon is crispy and evenly browned. (Approximately 8-10 minutes)

04

Step
5 mins

Remove the bacon from the skillet and place it on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess grease. Once cooled slightly, crumble the bacon into small, delectable pieces.

05

Step
2 mins

In a medium bowl, whisk together the cooled cheese sauce, crumbled bacon, mayonnaise, and milk until the dressing is smooth, creamy, and evenly blended. Adjust the consistency with additional milk if needed.

06

Step

Serve immediately over your favorite fresh salads, or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a pinch of smoked paprika or a dash of Worcestershire sauce to the dressing.
If you prefer a tangier dressing, substitute a tablespoon of apple cider vinegar for some of the milk.
For a smoother dressing, use a hand blender or immersion blender to combine all the ingredients.
