Mandy's Baked Mac & Cheese image

This mac & cheese is absolutely delicious! I had never liked mac & cheese, but my mom had me try some of my Aunt Mandy's one night and I fell in love... I had to get the recipe! It's actually pretty simple to make. My aunt spent years trying different ingredients & methods and finally found the perfect way. So here it is!

Categories     Cheese

Time 40m

Yield 1 casserole, 10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

4 cups noodles (any type of tubular pasta works best)
6 cups sharp cheddar cheese
1/2 cup salted butter
1/2 cup flour
3 2/3 cups milk

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
  • Cook noodles.
  • While noodles are cooking make the medium white sauce: melt the stick of butter in a pan on stove top on high heat. When melted, add the flour and stir until smooth. Slowly add the milk while constantly stirring so it doesn't lump. When it's of a nice, medium thick consistency, add 3 cups of the cheese. Let melt while stirring constantly. When melted, turn off stove.
  • Pour some of the sauce in a 13" x 9" x 2" rectangular pan until it fills about the bottom 1/2" of the pan.
  • Add the noodles and then pour rest of sauce on top. Stir together.
  • Put last 3 cups of cheese on top.
  • Bake for about 20 minutes or until golden and bubbling.

This is the best baked mac and cheese recipe I've ever tried. The cheese sauce is so creamy and flavorful, and the topping is perfectly crispy. I will definitely be making this again.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my baked mac and cheese turned out dry and bland. I'm not sure what went wrong.

Not bad, but too much cheese for my taste. I'll try it again with less cheese next time.
