Ingredients

1 bag (8 ounces) kettle potato chips, such as Cape Cod

2 ounces cream cheese

1/2 cup whole milk

1/2 cup crumbled blue cheese

1 1/2 cups shredded Gouda (5 ounces)

Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper

2 teaspoons hot sauce, such as Frank’s

1 thinly sliced jalapeno (1/4 cup)

1/2 cup sour cream

2 tablespoons chopped chives (from 1 bunch)

Preparation

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment; spread chips out in a single layer. In a small saucepan, whisk together cream cheese and milk over medium heat until combined, 2 minutes. Whisk in blue cheese and 1/2 cup Gouda. Bring to a boil and cook, whisking constantly, until thickened, 5 minutes. Stir in 1/4 teaspoon salt, 1/8 teaspoon pepper, and hot sauce.

Drizzle cheese sauce evenly over chips, then sprinkle with remaining 1 cup Gouda. Bake until bubbly and crisp at edges, 5 to 7 minutes. Top with jalapeno, sour cream, and chives; serve.
