Grandma's Macaroni and Cheese Recipe - (4.2/5) image

Provided by á-46334

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 (16 ounce) package elbow macaroni
2 (10 3/4-ounce) cans condensed Cheddar cheese soup
2 cups milk
6 cups (1 1/2 pounds) sharp Cheddar cheese, shredded, reserving 1 cup for topping
3 tablespoons butter, melted

Stir in remaining ingredients except reserved cheese. Pour mixture into prepared baking dish and sprinkle with reserved cheese. Bake 35 to 40 minutes, or until heated through.

Tips:

  • Choose the Right Pasta: Use small-sized pasta like macaroni or shells, as they hold the cheese sauce well.
  • Cook Pasta Al Dente: Cook the pasta slightly undercooked (al dente) as it will continue to cook in the cheese sauce.
  • Make a Smooth Cheese Sauce: To prevent lumpiness, gradually whisk the milk into the melted butter and flour mixture.
  • Use a Variety of Cheeses: Use a combination of cheeses like cheddar, mozzarella, and Parmesan for a rich and flavorful cheese sauce.
  • Season the Dish Properly: Add salt, pepper, and other seasonings to taste to enhance the flavor of the macaroni and cheese.
  • Bake Until Golden Brown: Bake the macaroni and cheese in the oven until the top is golden brown and the cheese is bubbly.
