Yield 10-12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 lbs elbow macaroni
12 eggs
1 cup cubed Velveeta cheese
1/2 lb butter, melted
6 cups half-and-half, divided
4 cups grated sharp yellow cheddar cheese, divided
2 cups grated extra-sharp white cheddar cheese
1 1/2 cups grated mozzarella cheese
1 cup grated asiago cheese
1 cup grated gruyere
1 cup grated monterey jack cheese
1 cup grated muenster cheese
1/8 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon black pepper

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Bring a large saucepan of salted water to a boil. Add the macaroni and cook until slightly al dente, about 10 minutes. Drain and set aside to keep warm.
Whisk the eggs in a large bowl until frothy.
Add the Velveeta, butter and 2 cups of the half-and-half to the large bowl of eggs. Add the warm macaroni tossing until the cheese has melted and the mixture is smooth. Add the remaining half-and-half, 3 cups of the sharp yellow Cheddar, the remaining grated cheeses, and salt and pepper, tossing until completely combined in the large bowl.
Pour the mixture into 9 by 13-inch casserole or baking dishes (approximately 3 (3-quart) baking dishes) and bake for 30 minutes. Sprinkle with the remaining 1 cup of sharp yellow cheese and bake until golden brown on top, about 30 minutes more.
