Directions:
1️⃣ Cook the Fries:
Deep fry, bake, or air-fry the French fries until crispy and golden. Place them in a large serving bowl.
2️⃣ Make the Cheese Sauce:
In a saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Add flour, whisking constantly until smooth.
Gradually pour in the milk, stirring until the mixture thickens.
Add shredded cheese, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Stir until the cheese is melted and creamy.
3️⃣ Assemble the Loaded Fries:
Pour the hot cheese sauce generously over the fries.
4️⃣ Top it Off:
Sprinkle crispy bacon on top of the cheesy fries. Add extra toppings if desired for more flavor.
5️⃣ Serve:
Serve immediately while the cheese is gooey and the bacon is fresh.
✨ Pro Tip: For an extra kick, mix a bit of hot sauce into the cheese sauce or sprinkle red pepper flakes on top!
