Re: Mac & Cheese?
I used this recipe a few times and was a hit.
Ingredients
* 1 (8 ounce) package macaroni (whole grain or regular) * 4 tablespoons butter * 4 tablespoons flour * 1 cup milk * 1 cup cream * 1/2 teaspoon salt * fresh ground black pepper, to taste * 2 cups good quality shredded cheddar cheese * 1/2 cup buttered breadcrumbs
Directions
1.Preheat oven to 400°F. 2.Cook and drain macaroni according to package directions; set aside. 3.In a large saucepan melt butter. 4.Add flour mixed with salt and pepper, using a whisk to stir until well blended. 5. Pour milk and cream in gradually; stirring constantly. 6.Bring to boiling point and boil 2 minutes (stirring constantly). 7. Reduce heat and cook (stirring constantly) 10 minutes. 8.Add shredded cheddar little by little and simmer an additional 5 minutes, or until cheese melts. 9. Turn off flame. 10. Add macaroni to the saucepan and toss to coat with the cheese sauce. 11. Transfer macaroni to a buttered baking dish. 12. Sprinkle with breadcrumbs. 13. Bake 20 minutes until the top is golden brown.
