Best Macaroni And Cheese Youll Ever Eat Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook elbow macaroni in the boiling water, stirring occasionally until cooked through but firm to the bite, 8 minutes; drain.
• Melt butter in a large pot over medium-low heat. Slowly add flour to butter, whisking constantly; cook until brown and the mixture no longer smells of flour, about 5 minutes. Pour 1 cup milk into the flour mixture, whisking continually until fully incorporated, about 45 seconds; repeat twice. Add remaining 3 cups milk to the mixture, whisking to incorporate. Stir Worcestershire sauce, mustard powder, onion powder, and cayenne pepper into the mixture; season with salt and black pepper.
• Reduce heat to low. Cook sauce, whisking frequently, until it begins to thicken, about 10 minutes. Add about half the package of shredded Cheddar cheese; stir continually until the cheese melts completely. Repeat with remaining half package of Cheddar cheese and the American cheese, about 4 ounces at a time. Once cheese is entirely incorporated, remove sauce from heat.
• Stir drained macaroni into the cheese sauce to coat. Divide macaroni between two 9x13-inch baking dishes.
• Mix crushed potato chips, 1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese, and Parmesan cheese in a bowl. Top the macaroni with the potato chip mixture evenly. Spray the potato chip mixture with cooking spray.

Pour over macaroni and mix well. Top casserole with torn pieces of processed cheese. Drizzle melted butter over casserole, especially along the sides.
• Bake in the preheated oven until casserole is bubbling and cheese has melted, about 30 minutes.

Steps:

• Boil the pasta JUST until al dente, according to package directions. Drain and return to the pan you boiled it in. Set aside. (Mix in a little butter to keep the noodles from sticking if it's going to be awhile before you make the sauce)
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
• To a medium saucepan over medium heat, add the butter. When the butter has melted, add the flour, salt, dry mustard, pepper, and 1/8 teaspoon smoked paprika. With a wooden spoon or whisk, stir constantly for three minutes.
• Add the milk in a thin stream, stirring constantly with a whisk. Continue to stir constantly until the sauce thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon, 5-8 minutes.
• Remove from heat and add 2 cups of the cheese, stirring until melted. You'll reserve the last cup of cheese for topping. Pour the cheese sauce over the pasta and toss gently until all of the pasta is coated.
• Add half the pasta to a two-quart casserole dish (I like a tall 8-inch by 8-inch baking dish). Sprinkle on half the cheese. Add the rest of the pasta. Sprinkle on the rest of the cheese, then dust lightly with the smoked paprika.
• Bake for 25-30 minutes, until the mac and cheese is bubbling and browning on top.

Add macaroni and enjoy!

• Butter or coat a 2-quart casserole dish with cooking spray.
• Cover the casserole dish with a layer of macaroni.
• Add a layer of grated American cheese.
• Salt and pepper to lightly cover layer, add a small amount of butter.
• Repeat layering procedure, end with a layer of cheese.
• Beat one egg, add 1 1/4 cup milk and stir together. Pour egg/milk mixture over macaroni & cheese. If necessary, add enough milk to bring the milk level with 3/4-inch of top of macaroni & cheese.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven on the broil setting.
• Heat a large pot to medium and add the heavy cream. When the cream begins to bubble around the edges, add 1/2 cup each of the asiago and Monterey jack cheese, stirring constantly until the cheeses are melted.
• Remove from heat and add the macaroni, stirring until thoroughly incorporated.
• Add the diced jalapenos and bacon. The cheese mixture should be like glue now. If it's not add a little more of the remaining 1/4 cup of asiago and Monterey jack cheeses until they are melted and the mixture isn't too wet looking. If the mixture seems too dry, add 2 tablespoons of the heavy cream until it's the consistency you like.
• Sprinkle in a little salt and pepper. I didn't use very much. The bacon and cheese must have plenty of salt.
• Pour the mixture into a large baking dish and distribute evenly. Top with the cheddar cheese and if you wish, the bread crumbs.
• Place the dish under the broiler. It's done when the cheese on top begins to bubble and brown around the edges.
• Note: Don't be afraid to add all the jalapenos. I was afraid they'd be too hot for the grandkids who don't care for the heat. But the peppers didn't seem hot at all.
