Mable L Ashman's Macaroni and Cheese

List of Ingredients




Mable Leventry Ashman's Macaroni and Cheese

Mable, my mother-in-law, passed away this year(1998) and along with an empty space in our hearts she also left this recipe. Mable loved her family and had a great sense of humor. I married her only daughter so she refered to me as "her favorite son-in-law". This is without a doubt in my mind the best Macaroni and Cheese you'll ever eat, so whip up a batch and invite me over. Mable would like that.

Ingredients
1 cup elbow macaroni 1 cup milk
2 tblsp margarine 1/4 tsp salt
2 tblsp flour 1 lb midget longhorn cheese

Cook 1 cup elbow macaroni for 8 min. Drain and set aside.

Make a medium white sauce using 2 tblsp of margarine, 2 tblsp of flour, 1 cup of milk and 1/4 tsp of salt. Melt the margarine(low heat), add all but 1/4 cup of milk and the flour. Add the flour to the remaining milk in a covered container and shake. Add to the mixture and stir continuously until it thickens - about 5 min. Add the macaroni

Use a 1lb midget longhorn cheese. The type that is cylinder shaped, though I'm sure any longhorn cheese will do. Slice enough cheese for 3 layers in a 1.5 qt casserole dish. Cut the rest of the cheese in chunks and melt with sauce and macaroni. Starting with the cheese make layers of the cheese and macaroni in the casserole(cheese,macaroni,cheese,macaroni,cheese). End with a layer of cheese on top. Bake at 350 degrees, about 1 hour or until all the cheese is melted.
