Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil over high heat. Once the water is boiling, stir in the macaroni, and return to a boil. Cook the pasta uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the pasta has cooked through, but is still firm to the bite, about 8 minutes. Drain well in a colander set in the sink.
- In a large skillet over medium heat, cook and stir the ground beef with onion until the meat is browned, about 10 minutes. Break the meat up into crumbles as it cooks; drain excess grease. Mix in the tomato sauce, diced tomatoes, corn, kidney beans, taco seasoning, and chili seasoning; bring to a boil, reduce heat to a simmer, and cook, stirring occasionally, for about 20 minutes.
- Whisk the Cheddar cheese soup and milk in a saucepan until smooth, and bring to a simmer over medium-low heat. Whisk in 1 cup of shredded Cheddar cheese, 1/2 cup of sour cream, and garlic powder; season to taste with salt and black pepper.
- Arrange the cooked macaroni into the bottom of a 10x15-inch baking dish, and mix with the soup mixture. Pour the ground beef chili over the macaroni, and sprinkle with 1 more cup shredded Cheddar cheese and crushed tortilla chips.
- Bake in the preheated oven until the casserole is hot and bubbling and the cheese topping has melted, 20 to 30 minutes. Serve topped with dollops of sour cream.

Tips:
- Use a variety of beans. This will give your soup a more complex flavor and texture. Some good options include kidney beans, black beans, pinto beans, and white beans.
- Don't skip the chili powder. It's the key ingredient that gives chili macaroni soup its signature flavor. If you don't have any on hand, you can substitute a teaspoon of ground cumin and a teaspoon of paprika.
- Add some spice. If you like your soup spicy, add a teaspoon or two of cayenne pepper or crushed red pepper flakes. You can also add some diced jalapeños or serrano peppers.
- Don't overcook the macaroni. It should be cooked al dente, so that it still has a little bit of a bite to it. If you overcook it, it will become mushy and ruin the texture of the soup.
- Serve with your favorite toppings. Some popular options include shredded cheddar cheese, sour cream, diced onions, and chopped cilantro.
Conclusion:
Chili macaroni soup is a hearty and delicious soup that is perfect for a cold winter day. It's also a great way to use up leftover chili. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can easily make a pot of this soup that your whole family will love.
