My mom called this morning looking for a Macaroni and Cheese recipe. This one is EXCELLENT. I took a Martha Stewart recipe and edited it to my taste . . . simple, good, and total comfort food. Everyone I have made it for loves it, I hope you do too. Let me know what you think!
Michelle’s Macaroni & Cheese
Ingredients:
6 Tbs. butter
5-1/2 C. milk
½ C. flour
2 tsp. salt
¼ tsp. black pepper
4-1/2 C. sharp cheddar cheese (grated)
1 C. grated parmesan
1 LB. elbow macaroni
Heat oven to 375 degrees. In medium saucepan over medium heat melt 6 Tbs. butter until bubbly. Add flour and cook, stirring for 1 minute. Heat the milk in microwave until very warm. Slowly pour milk into flour/butter mixture while whisking. Continue cooking and stirring until mixture bubbles and thickens. Remove from heat. Stir in salt, pepper, 3 cups grated cheddar cheese and 1 cup parmesan cheese. Set cheese sauce aside. Cook noodles 2-3 minutes less than manufacturer’s directions. (Inside should be underdone.) Run noodles under cold water after draining. Stir into cheese sauce. Pour into a 9 x 13 pan and top with remaining cheddar cheese. Bake approximately 30 minutes or until as brown and bubbly as you like.
Have a great week!
