Ingredients | Baked Macaroni And Cheese Ingredients

2 ½ cups elbow macaroni

¼ cup butter

¼ cup all-purpose flour

½ teaspoon salt

4 cups milk

1 pound shredded Cheddar cheese

¼ cup butter, melted

1 sleeve buttery round crackers, crushed

Directions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a boil over high heat. Stir in the macaroni, and cook uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the pasta has cooked through, but is still firm to the bite, about 8 minutes. Drain well.

Melt 1/4 cup butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Stir in flour and salt. Cook, stirring constantly, for 2 minutes. Whisk in milk and simmer, stirring frequently, until mixture thickens slightly, about 5 minutes.

Turn off heat and stir in Cheddar cheese until the cheese is melted. Add the macaroni and stir to coat. Pour the mixture into a 9x13-inch baking dish. Mix the 1/4 remaining cup melted butter and crushed crackers together in a bowl; scatter the cracker mixture evenly over the macaroni mixture.

Bake in preheated oven until golden brown on top, about 45 minutes.
