This is another family favorite. It has to be the butter and bouillon! It's not a healthy treat so use wisely and enjoy! P.S. The cheese amount is not precise. When I say "cube," I mean the normal size blocks you buy at the grocery store. You can adjust the amount of cheese to your liking. Also, 4 cubes of bouillon is for the small squares of bouillon. If you buy the bigger sizes, just use two.
