We are having homemade mac and cheese for dinner tonight. MMMMM

Sounds yummy!

Does anyone have a good recipe that results in a saucier cheese that evenly coats? All the recipes I've ever tried end up with macaroni having very little coating and lots of melted cheese globs.

I was hoping to see a recipe too. I've never tried making it. My crew would insist on a pretty creamy sauce too. They wouldn't go for kinda dry and globby.

I made this for DH a few weeks ago and he LOVED it. I used the evaporated milk and it definitely made a difference. I also threw in a few slices of American Cheese.

Prep Time: 10 Minutes
Cook Time: 35 Minutes
Serves: 6
Ingredients:
8 ounces Elbows
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon dry mustard
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
3 cups milk (or evaporated milk for extra creaminess)
2 tablespoons margarine or butter
2 cups (8 ounces) shredded American or cheddar cheese, divided

Directions:
Preheat oven to 375°F. Cook pasta 6 minutes & drain. Combine cornstarch, salt, dry mustard & pepper in medium saucepan over medium heat. Stir in milk until smooth. Add margarine; stirring constantly, bring to a boil over medium-high heat & boil 1 minute. Remove from heat. Stir in 1-3/4 cups cheese until melted. Add cooked pasta. Pour into greased 2-quart casserole. Sprinkle with remaining cheese and bread crumbs. Bake uncovered 25 minutes or until lightly browned.

Here's one that's really easy. It's so nice and creamy too.


Ragu double cheddar cheese sauce.

Add cut up velveeta cheese and melt in the cheese sauce on low heat.

Make elbow mac according to directions and mix together with melted cheese sauce.

If I remember correctly, I use one jar of the Ragu cheese sauce, about 1/4 block of velveeta for 8 oz of elbow mac.
