Super Cheesy Macaroni and Cheese

Recipes »  Side Dish  »  Side Dish - Other

I saw this recipe on Guy's Big Bite on the Food Network. I made a couple of small changes. Best macaroni and cheese I've ever eaten/made!

"I always made the white-sauce kind before & was just curious how this would turn out--it was really good! Just as creamy as the other kind & way easier to make. Intensely cheesy, will use .5 sharp and .5 mild next time. " - Lynn1775

Super Cheesy Macaroni and Cheese Preparation

Preheat oven to 325 degrees.

Cook the pasta in boiling water for 8 minutes, or until al dente.

Drain pasta and rinse with cold water to stop the cooking process.

In a large bowl, mix together eggs, evaporated milk, melted butter, salt, pepper and dry mustard.

Stir in 3/4 (or 3 cups) of the shredded cheese and then add the pasta.

Spray an 8x8 inch baking pan with nonstick spray and add the pasta mixture.

Top with remaining cheese.

Bake approx. 35-40 minutes or until the cheese is golden and bubbly.

Notes

Make sure you use a good quality cheese or the end result can be a little greasy.

Also the recipe called for a dusting of paprika after you put the final layer of cheese on but before it goes in the oven. I didn't have any but it still turned out great!

    I've already had requests to make this again! I took it to Easter dinner and there was nothing left, everyone loved it. I think it's going to be my new potluck staple recipe now!!!

    This could also be frozen and baked at a later date. Just adjust bake time.
