4.6 from 143 reviews

Delicious Voodoo Fries inspired by Wingstop, featuring crispy baked French fries topped with a creamy, spicy white cheddar cheese sauce infused with ranch seasoning and cayenne pepper for a flavorful kick.

Ingredients

Scale

Fries

  • 26 ounces frozen French fries

Cheese Sauce

  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups milk
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground white pepper
  • 2 teaspoons ranch seasoning powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon cayenne powder (divided)
  • 8 ounces white cheddar cheese, shredded

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven or Air Fryer: Preheat your oven or air fryer to 400°F to ensure the fries cook evenly and achieve a golden crisp texture.
  2. Cook Fries: Arrange the frozen French fries in a single layer on a baking sheet or in the air fryer basket. Bake or air fry according to package instructions until they are golden brown and crispy.
  3. Melt Butter and Make Roux: In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Whisk in the all-purpose flour until well combined and cook for about 2 minutes to form a roux, which will thicken the sauce.
  4. Add Milk and Seasonings: Gradually pour in the milk while continuously whisking to prevent lumps. Stir in salt, ground white pepper, ranch seasoning powder, and half of the cayenne powder to infuse the sauce with flavor and a mild heat.
  5. Thicken Sauce and Add Cheese: Lower the heat to medium-low and cook the sauce, stirring frequently, until it thickens, about 5 minutes. Then stir in the shredded white cheddar cheese until melted and the sauce is smooth and creamy.
  6. Combine and Serve: Pour the hot cheese sauce evenly over the cooked fries. Optionally, sprinkle the remaining cayenne powder on top if you like an extra kick, and serve warm immediately for best taste and texture.

Notes

  • You can use an air fryer or oven depending on your preference for cooking fries.
  • Ranch seasoning powder adds a tangy flavor—adjust the amount to taste.
  • For extra spicy fries, increase cayenne pepper cautiously.
  • Use freshly shredded cheese for best melting consistency.
  • Serve immediately after topping to keep fries crisp.
