MAMA used Texas Longhorn cheese in this recipe. When the cheese melted, it covered all the macaroni. I loved to dig in and see how many strings of cheese would follow my spoonful. Ingredients:
1 package (7 ounces) elbow macaroni |
1/4 cup butter, cubed |
1/4 cup king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
dash pepper |
2 cups 2% milk |
2 cups (8 ounces) shredded cheddar cheese |
paprika, optional |
Directions:
1. Cook macaroni according to package directions. Meanwhile, in a large saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Stir in flour, salt and pepper until smooth; gradually whisk in milk. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly; cook and stir 1-2 minutes longer or until thickened.
2. Stir in cheese until melted. Drain macaroni; add to cheese sauce and stir to coat. If desired, sprinkle with paprika. Yield: 6 servings.
