Directions
Toss together dill Havarti and onion & chive white Cheddar cheeses, corn starch and dill in a medium bowl until cheeses are well coated with corn starch. Set aside.
Melt butter in a medium saucepan over medium-low heat. Remove saucepan from heat; add wine and cream cheese. Return to heat and cook for 5 to 6 minutes or until melted, whisking occasionally.
Reduce heat to low. Gradually whisk in one-third of the shredded cheese mixture, whisking until melted. Continue whisking in remaining cheese mixture, one-third at a time, until cheeses are melted. Whisk in mustard and salt. Gently simmer, uncovered, for 4 to 5 minutes or until thickened, whisking frequently. Do not let cheese mixture reach over 150 degrees.
To serve, pour cheese into a fondue pot. Keep warm on the warming setting (below 150 degrees). If cheese sauce becomes too thick, stir in a small amount of additional wine. Serve with desired fresh vegetables and fruit, crackers and/or toasted bread cubes, if desired.
