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!

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.
