My copycat recipe for Wingstop Louisiana Voodoo Fries is just what you need when you are in the mood for Wingstop but don’t feel like going out. You can make this copycat recipe with just a few components to get cheesy fries that taste like they came from Wingstop.

 

Homemade Voodoo fries

I am a huge fan of Wingstop, especially the fries, but sometimes I don’t feel like going out and just want to stay home in my sweatpants. And since Ubereats isn’t available where I live, I make my own copycat Wingstop recipes at home.

This recipe came about after I made a batch of my copycat cajun Wingstop fries. All I needed to add is creamy cheese sauce and some homemade Wingstop ranch to make this easy voodoo fries recipe.

With a little bit of experimenting, I think I came up with a copycat recipe that tastes similar to the restaurant.

I like to serve these alongside copycat lemon pepper wings or Louisiana wings.

Step one: Fries – Make the cajun seasoning by combining the seasonings, sugar, and brown sugar together. Cook you fries according to the bag directions. As soon as they are done cooking, sprinkle with the cajun seasoning.

Step two: Cheese sauce – Start by making the roux for the cheese sauce. Melt the butter in a saucepan. Whisk in the flour and then milk to make the roux.

Step three: Stir the shredded cheese in with the roux and remove from the heat. Stir until melted.

Step four: Assemble – Top the french fries with cheese sauce, and ranch. Serve warm.

Variations and substitutions

The best thing about cooking at home is that you can adjust the recipe to your taste.

Fries – Feel free to use your favorite french fries or even sweet potato fries. These are great with waffle fries, steak fries, even tater tots.

Cheese sauce – I am using cheddar cheese to make the sauce but you can substitute with white cheddar cheese. If you are in a hurry, you can also substitute with jarred cheese sauce that has been warmed.

Ranch – You can substitute ranch with blue cheese dressing, buffalo ranch, blackened ranch, or even BBQ ranch.

Seasoning – If you would like a spicier seasoning, add a little more cayenne pepper. You can also substitute with premade cajun seasoning.

Heather’s recipe tips

• Don’t use pre-shredded cheese to make the sauce. You want to use a good quality cheese.
• When making the cheese sauce, make sure keep the temperature on medium-low when making the roux and to remove the roux from the heat before mixing in the cheese. This will help prevent grainy cheese sauce.
• Make sure to wait to add the cheese sauce until you are ready to eat. If you add it too early, it can make the fries soggy.

What to serve with Voodoo fries

These fries are great served with a variety of things. Try serving with:

• Chicken wings
• Chicken tenders
• Hamburgers
• Hot dogs
• Ribs

How to store leftovers

It’s hard to store leftover fries because the fries start to become soggy with the cheese sauce. I would recommend trying to store each component separately in the refrigerator if possible.

You can reheat the french fries in the oven or air fryer and warm up the cheese sauce on low heat on the stove.
