My family loves baked macaroni and cheese. So much so that I find myself making this easy recipe almost weekly. This recipe only takes 4 main ingredients and can be whipped up super quickly for those weeknights you just need to get something on the table!

Steps

35-45 minutes

1

Preheat oven to 350*
2

In a large pot bring water to a rolling boil. Add macaroni noodles for 5-6 minutes. (Do not cook through as you want them to be half done so that they hold up in the oven) You want them to be slightly cooked.
3

Remove macaroni from pot and set aside.
4

Take 2 cups of shredded cheese and dust with corn starch. Ensure cheese is well coated. Set aside.
5

In a medium sauce pan on medium heat add the 2 cups shredded cheese. Add in seasonings. Then add in the evaporated milk a little bit at a time. Stir consistently until sauce starts to form. (About 5-10 minutes) If it starts to thicken too quickly you can add a bit of milk.
6

Once your sauce has started to thicken remove from the heat and add in your macaroni noodles. Stir until well combined.
7

In a square well greased baking dish add in your macaroni and cheese mixture. Top with remaining cheese and transfer to the oven. Let bake for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown on top and sides are bubbly.
8

Remove from oven and let cool for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
