Step-by-Step Instructions for Louisiana Voodoo Fries
  1. Preheat your oven or air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Spread the frozen French fries in a single layer on a baking sheet or in the air fryer basket. Bake according to the package instructions for about 20-25 minutes, until golden brown and crispy.
  3. Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a medium-sized saucepan over medium heat. Whisk in 2 tablespoons of all-purpose flour to create a roux, stirring for about 2 minutes.
  4. Gradually add 1 cup of milk to the roux while whisking continuously, stirring frequently for about 5 minutes until thickened. Season with salt, pepper, 1 tablespoon of ranch seasoning powder, and a pinch of cayenne.
  5. Stir in 1 cup of shredded white cheddar cheese into the sauce and cook over medium heat for another 2 to 3 minutes, stirring constantly until the cheese melts completely.
  6. Remove the fries from the oven or air fryer and drizzle the creamy cheese sauce generously over the top. Sprinkle additional cayenne pepper, serve hot and enjoy!
