Bring 1 1/2 cups water to boil in a medium sized sauce pan.
Add 1/2 cup quick cooking grits in a steady stream and whisk with a wire whisk until it starts to thicken, about 3-4 minutes. Reduce heat to medium.
Add 1 pinch kosher salt, 2 tbsp butter and 2 tbsp heavy cream and stir to combine. Then add 3/4 cup sharp cheddar cheese and stir with a wooden spoon until the cheese has melted and has been fully incorporated. About 3-4 minutes.
Serving
