The moment you have all ben waiting for, My Mac and Cheese recipe. love to cook and one of everyone’s favorite thing for me to make is Mac & Cheese. It is not out of the box. I go all out. Some times I make it too spicy that Brianna does not like it. The last few times I made it just right for here. Go me!

All of my friends have been dying for this recipe because it is that good. Well, Here it is!

 

ingredients 

  • 2 pound elbow macaroni
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • 3 tablespoons butter
  • 3 tablespoons flour
  • 2 cups milk
  • 1 tablespoon green tabasco sauce
  • 1 tablespoon stone ground mustard
  • 3 cups grated sharp cheddar cheese

Preparation 

Pre-heat oven to 400°F

Place a large pot of water over high heat and bring it up to a boil to cook the pasta.  Once pasta is cooked, strain and put aside

While the pasta is cooking, heat a medium-size skillet over medium heat and add the butter.  When the butter melts, add the flour and cook till it is a paste.  Whisk in milk  slowly making it into a nice soupy mixture. Stir in the cheese slowly in a figure-eight motion, reserving enough to sprinkle on the top of the casserole, until it’s all melted. Fold in the mustard and tabasco, and season with salt and pepper to taste.

When the pasta is done, make sure its is drained well and combine past with cheese sauce. Pour into a casserole dish and top with the remaining cheese. Bake in oven until cheese is brown and bubbling.

 

Enjoy!
