Macaroni And Cheese Baked Cheese Balls Recipes

Steps:

• Make sure leftover macaroni and cheese is really cold. I suggest putting it in the freezer for about 20 minutes before preparing. While the macaroni and cheese is chilling in the freezer, get out three bowls. Add flour to one bowl, the egg to another, and the breadcrumbs to the remaining bowl. Whisk the egg slightly to break it up. Season the flour with salt and pepper to taste. Preheat oven to 425°F. Prepare a cookie sheet by lining it with aluminum foil . Drizzle one tablespoon of olive oil on aluminum foil and spread around to coat the foil evenly. When macaroni is chilled, remove from freezer. Scoop a tablespoon amount of macaroni and cheese and roll it around in your hands to make sure the ball is tightly packed. You want each ball to be uniform in size, about 1 or 1.5 inches in diameter. Roll each ball through the flour, then the egg, and lastly the breadcrumbs. Place on prepared cookie sheet. Bake for 10 minutes. Remove cookie sheet from oven, flip the macaroni balls over, and bake another 8-10 minutes, or until golden brown. Serve warm with various condiments and dipping sauces.

Steps:

• Boil water, add macaroni and cook until al dente
• Melt butter in a pan and mix 2 tsp flour into it.
• Add the milk gradually.
• Add both cheeses and cook until melted and the sauce is thick
• Season with salt and pepper.
• Add cooked macaroni and thoroughly cover.
• Refrigerate mixture for one hour.
• Take mixture out and form into balls on another plate.
• Refrigerate for 2 hours.
• Dip the solid balls in egg wash, then breadcrumbs.
• Fry in hot pan of oil until golden brown on both sides.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a 2-quart baking dish.
• In a large pot of salted water, lightly boil the macaroni for about 5 minutes until half-cooked.
• Whisk the egg and milk together in a large cup. Add butter and cheese to the egg and milk. Stir well.
• Place the lightly cooked macaroni in the prepared baking dish. Pour the egg and cheese liquid over the macaroni, sprinkle with salt and pepper, and stir well. Press the mixture evenly around the baking dish.
• Bake uncovered, for 30 to 40 minutes, or until the top is brown.

Steps:

• The night before you would like to make this dish, cook the box mix of mac and cheese according to the directions on the box. Pour the mac and cheese into an 8 x8, 9x9 or and flat pan in the refrigerator to set overnight.
• Preheat oven to 350.
• Line three bowls on the counter.
• In the first bowl, combine flour, black pepper, cayenne pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder.
• In the second bowl, break the egg and slightly scramble it.
• In the third bowl, place the breadcrumbs and wheat bran.
• Take the chilled mac and cheese out of the refrigerator and cut into 1 x 1 inches blocks. Don't try for perfection, because it won't happen. Just as long as the noodles are sticking together it will work out fine.
• Now drudge the mac and cheese ball into the flour mixture, then egg, then breadcrumbs, and place on a pan.
• Continue the process until you have created as many mac and cheese balls as you wish.
• Bake for 20 to 30 minutes, depending upon how crusty you like them. And remember to flip the balls around every 10 minutes to make sure all sides cook evenly.
• Enjoy!
