Directions

In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt 2 tablespoons butter. Add ½ small, finely chopped onion and saute until soft. Add 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce, 1 teaspoon hot pepper sauce and ¼ teaspoon garlic powder. Reduce heat to medium-low and add 1½ pounds sharp Cheddar cheese spread, a little at a time, allowing cheese to melt after each addition.

Gradually add ¾ cup crumbled blue cheese and enough beer to thin dip to desired consistency (about ½ to 1 cup).

Serve in a fondue pot or bread bowl. Serve hot as a dip or at room temperature as a spread with bread cubes, crackers, new potatoes, vegetables or sausage pieces. To facilitate dipping, offer bamboo skewers.
