Macaroni and Cheese- Adult Style


Bonus: This only dirties on pot!! This macaroni and cheese came from years of searching for just the right one. I sprinkle red pepper flakes on mine. The kids, of course, don't like the red pepper. I love my mom's mac-n-cheese, but I was always burning the cheese or curdling the flour in the rou.

In a large pot fill with water. Boil for about 9 minutes:

2 cups macaroni (I used 1 cup regular macaroni, & 1 cup wheat macaroni)

Drain the cooked macaroni and return to pot. Make sure the stove in set on low heat. Add:

1/4 cup butter, cut up

After the butter is well coated on macaroni, add:

12 oz evaporated milk
2 eggs, beaten
1/2 tsp salt

Stir and babysit the pot for about 10 minutes. Then take the pot off the stove and add:

3 cups cheddar cheese.

  1. hmmm, that's a pretty simple recipe.

    when we make our mac, we add some bread crumbs and then bake it for a few minutes.

    I love adult mac and cheese.
