Mine is very simple...after the mac is cooked...pour in a bit of milk and margarine, and tons of colby/jack cheese...cover til cheese is melted and ya got it...no recipe...just instinct...hmmm...that might be dinner

* 1 pound elbow macaroni * 2 tablespoons unsalted butter * 1 pound sharp Cheddar cheese * Salt and freshly ground black pepper * 2 cups milk * 2 cups heavy cream Directions Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Bring a large pot of water to a boil, add salt and macaroni and cook for 4 to 5 minutes (until the macaroni is half cooked). Butter a 3-quart baking dish, add 1/3 of the cooked macaroni and then layer with cheese, salt, and pepper; repeat this until the elbows have all transferred. Pour the milk and heavy cream over the macaroni. Cover the macaroni and cheese with tinfoil and bake for 1 hour and 15 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes or until the macaroni is brown and bubbling on top. Yummy yummy rich and gooey

I usually cook the macaroni, drain, then add slices of american and velveeta cheese with milk and it turns out really creamy. One of my boyfriends in high school begged for it everytime he came over for dinner. Said it was the best he ever tasted. By the way, it is a 50/50 mix of the slices.

I like the really strong flavored cheese's so I tend to use fresh parmesean and Swiss with some Mozzarella mixed in

boil macaronni and drain . heavy cream, chedder and swiss chesse shredded works best. boil to cheese melts, add macaronni stir and serve.
