Louisiana Voodoo Fries are a spicy, cheesy twist on classic fries, inspired by Wingstop’s famous dish. These fries are loaded with a creamy, white cheddar cheese sauce infused with ranch seasoning and cayenne pepper, delivering a perfect balance of heat and flavor in every bite. Crispy frozen fries are topped with a rich, velvety cheese sauce that elevates this casual snack or appetizer into a delicious treat.

Ingredients

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. Prepare the Fries: Cook the frozen French fries according to the package instructions until crispy and golden. You can bake them in the oven or air fry them, whichever you prefer, ensuring they are hot and ready to be topped with sauce.
  2. Make the Roux: In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Once melted, whisk in the all-purpose flour and cook for about 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly to form a smooth paste and to cook out the raw flour taste.
  3. Add Milk and Seasonings: Gradually whisk in the milk, making sure to continue stirring to avoid lumps. Add the salt, ground white pepper, ranch seasoning powder, and half of the cayenne powder (about 1/4 teaspoon). Continue cooking and stirring until the sauce thickens and coats the back of a spoon, about 5-7 minutes.
  4. Incorporate Cheese: Reduce the heat to low and slowly add the shredded white cheddar cheese to the sauce, stirring constantly until fully melted and smooth. Adjust seasoning with remaining cayenne powder for additional heat if desired.
  5. Assemble the Voodoo Fries: Place the hot cooked fries on a serving platter or individual plates. Pour the creamy white cheddar cheese sauce generously over the fries.
  6. Serve Immediately: Serve the Louisiana Voodoo Fries hot as a spicy appetizer, snack, or side dish to your favorite meal.

Notes

  • For extra crispiness, air fry the fries instead of baking.
  • You can adjust the cayenne pepper amount to control the heat level.
  • Ranch seasoning powder can be homemade or store-bought; adjust salt accordingly if yours is salty.
  • Use freshly shredded cheese for the best melting texture and flavor.
  • These fries are best enjoyed immediately for the best texture and flavor.
