Time 35m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 12

8 cups water
4 cups uncooked elbow macaroni
3 tablespoons butter, divided
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
½ cup milk
½ cup heavy whipping cream
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
fresh ground black pepper to taste
4 ounces grated Cheddar cheese
¼ cup panko bread crumbs
½ teaspoon Italian seasoning
¼ teaspoon garlic salt

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook elbow macaroni in the boiling water, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 8 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
  • Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a saucepan over medium heat, about 1 minute. Whisk flour into butter to form a roux. Add milk and cream, stirring to blend. Add Worcestershire sauce, black pepper, and grated Cheddar cheese. Stir until melted, 1 to 3 minutes. Drain macaroni and add to the saucepan. Mix until combined. Spread mixture out onto the prepared baking sheet.
  • Combine panko bread crumbs, Italian seasoning, and garlic salt in a bowl. Sprinkle mixture over the macaroni and cheese on the baking sheet. Place remaining butter in a small microwave-safe bowl and heat in a microwave oven until melted, about 1 minute. Drizzle melted butter over the macaroni and cheese.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until bubbling, 15 to 20 minutes.
