Need Dry cheese recipe

[dreamin_cowgirl]

I am looking for a copycat recipe for the dry cheese. Like the kind that is in Mac & Cheese. Anyone know where I can find the recipe. Thanks

here's one that I have:

1/3 cup dehydrated cheese powder (American cheese)
3 T. nonfat dry milk powder
3 T. dehydrated butter powder or flakes
3 T. flour
1/4 t. salt
1/8 t. white pepper
1/8 t. onion powder


Combine all ingredients in a small bowl and mix thoroughly with wire whisk. Store in tightly closed container in the refrigerator.

To make cheese sauce, combine 1 cup hot tap water with 1/2 cup Cheese Sauce Mix in a small saucepan over medium heat.
Bring to a boil, stirring constantly with a wire whisk. Makes 1 cup cheese sauce

Sounds like what I am looking for, but where do i find the cheese powder & butter powder?

Dry cheese powders (cheddar, white cheddar, cream cheese, etc.) and butter powders are usually used by professional bakers. I don't know if you have a bakery wholesaler in your area (I am lucky to have one nearby) that would have those items for you. If not - you can check your search engine to find an outlet on line. Check your yellow pages for bakery supplies also.
