Categories     Cheese

Time 1h30m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 lb short pasta (such as cavatappi or macaroni)
6 tablespoons butter
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
4 cups milk
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
3 cups shredded sharp white cheddar cheese (12 oz)
1 cup finely grated parmesan cheese (2 oz)
3 cups very coarse fresh breadcrumbs

Steps:

  • Cook pasta in a large pot of boiling water 1 to 2 minutes less than package instructions. Drain, rinse with cool water, and return to pot.
  • Meanwhile, heat 4 T. butter in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Add flour; cook, whisking, 1 minute. Add milk, cayenne pepper, nutmeg, and 2 t. salt; bring to a simmer. Cook, whisking, until mixture is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon, 2 to 3 minutes. Whisk in cheeses until smooth. Pour over pasta; toss to coat. Divide among baking dishes.
  • Melt remaining 2 T. butter; toss with breadcrumbs. Sprinkle over pasta. (Cover tightly with plastic wrap; freeze up to 3 months.).
  • Preheat oven to 375. Place frozendishes on a baking sheet; remove plastic. Cover with foil. Bake until bubbling, 60-70 minutes for large dishes, 40-50 minutes for small. Remove foil; continue baking until golden, 5 to 10 minutes more.

I'm not a big fan of macaroni and cheese, but this recipe is pretty good.

I didn't have any bread crumbs, so I used crushed crackers instead.

This is the best macaroni and cheese recipe I've ever tried! It's so creamy and cheesy, and the breadcrumb topping is the perfect finishing touch.
