Velveeta is most commonly used to make macaroni and cheese.
Everyone knows or at least has seen the smooth, processed cheese product that is often used in macaroni and cheese recipes and and for dip. Velveeta may not be natural cheese, but it has been around since 1918 and has ingrained itself as a part of American culture. You can use Velveeta cheese to replace, or in addition to, other cheeses in plenty of recipes; whether it's a twist on the classic mac and cheese or even chocolate fudge.
