    Classic Baked Macaroni and Cheese


    2 cups milk
    2 tablespoons butter
    2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
    • 1 (10-oz.) block extra sharp Cheddar cheese, shredded
    • 1/4 teaspoon ground red pepper (optional)
    • 1/2 (16-oz.) package elbow macaroni, cooked

    Recipe




    1. WHISK FLOUR INTO BUTTER
    Preheat oven to 400°. Microwave milk at HIGH for 1 1/2 minutes. Melt butter in a large skillet or Dutch oven over medium-low heat; whisk in flour until smooth. Cook, whisking constantly, 1 minute.

    2. WHISK IN WARM MILK
    Gradually whisk in warm milk, and cook, whisking constantly, 5 minutes or until thickened.

    3. WHISK IN CHEESE
    Whisk in salt, black pepper, 1 cup shredded cheese, and, if desired, red pepper until smooth; stir in pasta. Spoon pasta mixture into a lightly greased 2-qt. baking dish; top with remaining cheese. Bake at 400° for 20 minutes or until golden and bubbly.
