Grandma's Best Macaroni and Cheese
- Ready In:

- Serves:
-
4-6
ingredients
- 1⁄2 lb elbow macaroni
- 10 ounces extra-sharp cheddar cheese, grated
- 5 ounces evaporated milk
- 2 tablespoons butter or 2 tablespoons margarine
directions
- Cook the macaroni according to the box instructions.
- After draining the macaroni, stir in the butter or margarine so that it melts in the hot pasta.
- Add 2/3 of the 5 oz. can of evaporated milk. You want the milk to coat the noodles without having too much milk left over in the pot.
- Layer the noodles and cheese in a oven-safe dish. The layering is key to the even distribution of cheese! Start with the noodles, then cheese, and repeat; finish with a layer of cheese on top.
- Bake at 350 degrees for 15-20 minutes, or until cheese is bubbly.

I live in Charlottesville with four other girls - yes, four! We have a tiny kitchen (and no dishwasher!), but I try to make the best of it. I go to the University of Virginia and love to cook in my spare time. I'm always looking for new meals to try!
