Ingredients

  • 2 ¼ cups whole milk
  • 2 ¼ cups water
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup quick-cooking grits
  • 1 (8 ounce) package processed cheese (such as Velveeta®), cubed
  • ½ pound sharp Cheddar cheese, cubed
  • ¼ cup butter

Directions

Step 1
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Butter a 9×12-inch baking dish.

Bring milk, water, and salt to a boil in a large saucepan; gradually sprinkle grits into the boiling liquid, stirring to combine. Cook until thickened, about 5 minutes.
