Ingredients You’ll Need:
- 2 cups elbow macaroni
- 4 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese
- 2 cups milk
- 1/2 cup butter, melted
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 cup breadcrumbs (optional, for topping)
Instructions to Create the Magic:
- First up, cook that elbow macaroni according to package directions. Make sure you don’t overcook them; we want ‘em al dente! Drain and set aside.
- In a large saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter and whisk in the flour to make a roux. Stir it continuously for about 2 minutes until it’s nice and bubbly.
- Slowly add in the milk while whisking to keep it smooth. Continue to stir until the mixture thickens—this should take around 5 minutes.
- Once thickened, take it off the heat and stir in 3 cups of cheese, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix until that cheese is melted and everything is combined.
- Toss in the cooked macaroni and stir well to coat. Oh yeah, you can already smell that cheesy goodness!
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and transfer the macaroni mixture to a greased baking dish.
- Top off with the remaining cheese and breadcrumbs if you like a little crunch on top.
- Bake in the oven for about 25-30 minutes until it’s bubbly and golden brown.
