Please note that the preparation time varies wildly depending on whether you opt to buy pre-shredded cheese, shred your cheese in a food processor, or hand-shred your cheese.

Steps:
- liberally butter a 2 quart casserole dish.
- Alternate layering macaroni and cheese slices in the buttered casserole.
- Beat eggs, milk, salt and pepper.
- Pour mixture over macaroni and cheese.
- Mix cracker crumbs with melted butter.
- Add to top of casserole.
- Bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes or until a knife comes out clean when inserted.
Tips:
- Use a variety of cheeses to create a complex flavor. A blend of cheddar, Parmesan, and mozzarella is a classic choice, but you can also experiment with Gruyère, Gouda, or Fontina.
- Cook the macaroni until it is al dente, or slightly firm to the bite. This will prevent it from becoming mushy in the casserole.
- Don't overmix the casserole. Just stir until the ingredients are combined. Overmixing will make the casserole tough.
- Bake the casserole until it is golden brown and bubbly. This usually takes about 30 minutes.
- Let the casserole cool for a few minutes before serving. This will help it to set and make it easier to scoop.
Conclusion:
Macaroni and cheese casserole cups are a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. With a few simple tips, you can create a casserole that is creamy, cheesy, and flavorful. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give macaroni and cheese casserole cups a try!
