Cook Time:
15-20 minutes
Prep Time:
15 minutes
Serving Size:
6

Ingredients

8 ounces dry elbow macaroni
2 tablespoons Tillamook® Unsalted Butter
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 cups whole milk
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
2 1/2 cups (10 ounces) Tillamook® Medium Shredded Cheddar Cheese, divided

Preparation

Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: 15-20 minutes

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly butter a 2-quart shallow baking dish.

In a large pot, bring 3 quarts of water to a boil. Add 2 1/2 teaspoons salt and macaroni. Cook according to package directions, stirring occasionally. Pasta is done when it is slightly chewy to the bite or al dente. Drain pasta in a colander and set aside.

Prepare sauce while pasta is cooking. In a medium saucepan, over medium heat, melt butter. Whisk in flour and cook 3 minutes, whisking constantly. Gradually add milk and bring just to a boil, whisking constantly. Reduce heat and simmer, whisking often, until sauce slightly thickens, 4-5 minutes. Add salt, pepper and 2 cups of cheese. Stir until cheese is melted. Remove pan from heat and fold in pasta. Pour into prepared baking dish then sprinkle top with remaining cheese.

Bake 15-20 minutes or until cheese is bubbly and top begins to brown. Let sit 5 minutes before serving.

Haven't tried the recipe,yet. The recipe and my printer worked just great... but, oh aren't we all so frustrated by technolgy at times.

I tried printing your recipe and nothing happened. Someone mentioned pop-up blockers,I turned mine off and it still did not print. I know it's not my printer. I have printed other recipes from different sites in the past ex:( taste of home)and never had a problem. This aggravates me!
You put in "print recipe" and nothing happens. Why have this option on your site if does not work. Your site has good receipes, what good are they if you can't print them out.

Hello,
I think the print button uses a pop-up window. If your web browser has pop-up blocker, it may not allow it to print?

A couple of years ago I make a recipe
of Jamie and Bobby's. It was a
Baked Mac and Cheese dish. The
recipe was easy,I am unable to
find it. Is there anyway I can
look or find past recipes.
