Scale

Ingredients

  • 1 cup elbow macaroni
  • 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 cup milk
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter

Instructions

  1. Cook Pasta: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add macaroni and cook until al dente, about 7-8 minutes. Drain the pasta and set aside.
  2. Make Cheese Sauce: In a saucepan over medium heat, melt butter. Gradually stir in the milk and heat until warm but not boiling. Slowly add shredded cheddar cheese, stirring continuously until the cheese has melted and the sauce is smooth.
  3. Combine Pasta and Cheese Sauce: Add the cooked macaroni to the cheese sauce, stirring gently to coat all pasta evenly with the creamy cheese mixture. Cook for an additional minute to allow flavors to meld.

Notes

  • Use sharp cheddar for a more intense flavor.
  • Stir continuously while melting cheese to prevent clumping.
  • You can add a pinch of nutmeg or paprika for extra warmth and depth.
  • This dish is best served immediately for a creamy texture.
