I've never made hamburger helper so I don't know if I'll be a big help...
However I've made cheese sauce before, and adding the cheese to the milk just like that will probably make your sauce way too thin.
What I do: melt a good amount of butter in a saucepan (sorry I never measure, but about half a stick), slowly add flour and mix well. Again, no measurements, but i go until I have a very thick paste. Then very gradually add milk while mixing, until you get a sauce of the consistancy that you like. At the end, add the cheese.
I guess it depends on what type of hamburger helper you are trying to make. The cheeseburger will probably need milk (maybe water also), cheese, paprika, garlic, onion powder, and probably cornstarch to thinken it. I dont think it will need as much velveeta as you are thinking though. Or it might be like macaroni and cheese with beef (Which kind of sounds good too though) Good Luck!!
Hi ladies. I made chseeburger mac and it turned out great. I browned some ground chicken and spiced it really well. I used garlis powder, Mrs. Dash, salt, and pepper. I then cut up some velveeta cheese and let it melt over the meat along with some milk. I added cornstarch to thicken it some. I mixed it in with my egg noodles that I boiled in salt water. I topped it with a little shredded cheese! YUMMY!! I am so proud of myself.
It sounds like you did well on your own but here is another recipe that I have tried once before. The sauce wasn't as thick as what you probably ended up with though.

You could also try something with the new Philadelphia Cooking Creme. It's really high in salt, so definitely avoid it if that is a concern.
@lampshade127: Thanks! I am going to try that too. I have been seeing the commercials for the Philadelphia cream cheese and wanted to try them. Have you?

I am wanting to make this for dinner, but am trying to figure out if I have hte right idea. I was thinking about getting some velveeta cheese and melting it with milk to make the sauce. What do you think? Has anyone made it before?
