Ingredients:

Serving

1 (8-oz.) package elbow macaroni
2 tbsp butter
2 tbsp all-purpose flour
2 cups milk
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp fresh ground black pepper
1/4 tsp ground red pepper
1 (8-oz.) block sharp cheddar cheese, shredded

Directions:

Prepare pasta according to package directions. Keep warm.
Melt butter in a large saucepan or Dutch oven over medium-low heat; whisk in flour until smooth. Cook, whisking constantly, 2 minutes. Gradually whisk in milk, and cook, whisking constantly, 5 minutes or until thickened. Stir in salt, black and red pepper, and shredded cheese until melted. Add cooked pasta, and serve immediately.
Note: For testing purposes only, we used Kraft Sharp Cheddar Cheese. To lighten, 2% reduced-fat milk and reduced-fat cheese may be substituted.
