Directions:
Line a small loaf pan with plastic wrap, leaving a few inches of excess on both sides of the pan. Alternatively, you may use smaller loaf-size containers.

Put the water in a saucepan and bring to a boil.

Combine the gelatine, milk powder, and salt in a blender and pulse to blend.

Add the boiling water to the blender and immediately pulse a few times.
Quickly add the cheddar cheese and process until smooth.

Working quickly, pour or spoon the mixture into the lined pan. Use a spatula to even the top. Cover with the excess plastic wrap and refrigerate for several hours or overnight.

Slice the cheese and use it for cheese and cracker snacks, sandwiches, grilled cheese, or add some to a cheese sauce or dip.

Personal Notes:
Velveeta found in many older recipes used to contain cheese in its early years of existence. It is completely processed today necessitating the option of a homemade substitute in current recipes.
