OLD SCHOOL VELVEETA MACARONI AND CHEESE



Old School Velveeta Macaroni and Cheese image

Creamy, rich and cheesy. Three words that perfectly describe this delicious Velveeta Macaroni and Cheese recipe.

Provided by Nicole Cook

Categories     Main Dish

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 8 ounce package of elbow pasta
1 stick of butter
1 12 ounce can of evaporated milk
1 pound block of Velveeta cheese (cut into 1"-2" cubes)

Steps:

  • Boil the pasta as directed on the package.
  • Drain the water but keep ¼ cup or so in the bottom of the pot. Add 1 stick of butter, the can of evaporated milk and the Velveeta cheese.
  • Sprinkle some salt and pepper in there. (if you're like us, you'll sprinkle loads of pepper and barely any salt, because for some reason it just tastes better that way).
  • Heat the pot on medium until the cheese is completely melted and blended in.
  • Remove from heat and allow to sit for about 5 minutes. Stir and serve.
  • It will get thicker the longer it sits, enjoy!!

Tips:

  • Use freshly grated cheese. Pre-shredded cheese contains cellulose, which can make the sauce grainy.
  • Don't overcook the pasta. Al dente pasta is best for mac and cheese because it will hold its shape and not become mushy.
  • Make a roux. A roux is a mixture of butter and flour that helps to thicken the sauce and prevent it from curdling.
  • Use milk or cream. Milk will produce a lighter sauce, while cream will produce a richer, more decadent sauce.
  • Season the sauce to taste. Add salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder to taste.
  • Add other ingredients to your liking. Some popular additions include cooked bacon, diced tomatoes, and chopped green onions.
  • Serve immediately. Mac and cheese is best enjoyed hot and fresh out of the oven.

Conclusion:

Velveeta Ultimate Macaroni and Cheese is a classic comfort food dish that is easy to make and loved by people of all ages. With its creamy, cheesy sauce and perfectly cooked pasta, this dish is sure to be a hit at your next potluck or family gathering. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give this recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
