Ingredients:

Serving

3 tbsp butter
12 oz extra-sharp cheddar cheese, coarsely grated
12 oz american cheese
1 lb elbow macaroni , boiled in salted water until just tender, drained, and rinsed under cold water
1/8 tsp cayenne (optional)
salt
2/3 cup whole milk

Directions:

Heat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
Use one tablespoon butter to thickly grease a 9-by-13-inch baking dish.
Combine grated cheeses and set aside two heaping cups for topping.
In a large bowl, toss together the cooked pasta, cheeses, cayenne (if using) and salt to taste. Place mixture in prepared pan and evenly pour milk over surface.
Sprinkle reserved cheese on top; dot with remaining butter.
Bake, uncovered, for 45 minutes.
Raise heat to 400 degrees Fahrenheit and bake 15 to 20 minutes more, until crusty on top and bottom.
