- If you prefer a thicker chowder, consider adding a small amount of cornstarch mixed with water towards the end of cooking.
- Make sure to stir the cream cheese and cheddar cheese in well to ensure they are fully melted and integrated into the chowder.
- For extra spice, you can add more jalapeno or even a dash of hot sauce.
- Serve the chowder with crusty bread or tortilla chips to add a pleasant crunch.
