CLASSIC SOUTHERN STYLE MAC AND CHEESE
▪225g or 1/2lb Sharp cheddar, shredded
▪225g or 1/2lb Colby jack, shredded
▪225g or 1/2lb American cheese, shredded (sub velveeta)
▪125g or 1c grated parmesan
▪450g or 1lb macaroni
▪3 eggs
▪125g or 1/2c sour cream
▪2 12oz/350ml cans evaporated milk
▪2g or 1tsp black pepper
▪8g or 1 3/4tsp salt
▪115g or 1 stick unsalted butter, melted
Stir macaroni into well salted boiling water. Cook per package instructions or until al dente (should still have a strong bite and not be totally soft). Drain off water and add pasta to a large bowl.
Mix all cheeses together into a bowl.
In a separate bowl make egg custard by whisking together 3 large eggs, sour cream, evaporated milk, salt and pepper.
Add egg custard, melted butter, and about 85-90% of the shredded cheese blend into the large bowl with the cooked macaroni. Gently stir together. Mixture will be very runny.
Pour cheesy noodle mixture into a 9”x13” (23x33cm) baking dish, smooth down the top, and top with reserved shredded cheeses.
Bake at 375F/190C for 35-40 min until cheese on top is golden and melted.

EASY SOUTHERN STYLE MAC AND CHEESE
OLD-FASHIONED MACARONI AND CHEESE | So, Cheesy!
#weekendatthecottage #macaroniandcheese #macncheese
Go here for the recipe:
A FAVOURITE IN BOTH COTTAGE COUNTRY AND THE CITY, IT’S TIME FOR SOME OLD-FASHIONED MACARONI AND CHEESE!
There’s something especially fabulous about sitting down to a plate, bowl or cup of OLD-FASHIONED MACARONI AND CHEESE. Our recipe is the one that always gets requests for second helpings thanks to that perfect creamy sauce boosted with the rich flavouring of four cheeses!
I love the simplicity of this easy recipe and how it yields such rich flavours. You can serve it on its own or as a hearty side dish, and the leftovers reheat easily to enjoy all over again.
If serving this as a main course, you might want to partner it with our CAESAR SALAD - they go really well together. Since this is such a popular dish with kids, it’s also a good idea to knock your menu planning out of the park and make dessert too! Try LIZA’S FAMOUS BROWNIES served with vanilla ice cream and this CHOCOLATE CRACK! Don’t miss this chance to make lots of people really, really happy!
HERE’S WHY THIS OLD-FASHIONED MACARONI AND CHEESE RECIPE ALWAYS WORKS:
SO SIMPLE
This is one of those ingredient photos that gets two thumbs up. It’s always so perfect when a group of choice ingredients come together to create a delicious and highly memorable dish.
SAY CHEESE
The cheeses are especially important in this recipe. Try to use premium cheeses if you can - you’ll taste a difference. The cheddar gives the dish that distinctive cheese flavour while the Swiss adds subtle earthy notes. The mozzarella adds a lovely creaminess when the dish bakes.
THIS IS CRUMBY
The topper for this mac and cheese recipe is as much about flavour as it is about appearance. The Parmesan and breadcrumbs create a golden colour, but the flavour of the cheese makes the first few bites really tasty.
EASY BAKE
Baking the dish for 45 minutes always does the trick. Remember to reduce that cook time if you’re using smaller, individual dishes or ramekins. It’s also nice to sprinkle the top with a tiny bit of chopped parsley right before you serve.
WHEN HUNGER STRIKES, THIS OLD-FASHIONED MACARONI AND CHEESE IS ALL YOU NEED.

***FULL LIST OF INGREDIENTS***
- 1/2 Box Macaroni Pasta (Note: I'm using a 16oz sized box, so half would be 8oz)
- 2.5 Cups Water
- 2.5 Cups Chicken Broth
- Pinch of Salt
CHEESE SAUCE:
- 2 Tbsp Butter
- 2.5 Cups Heavy Cream ( Lower fat content creams will separate or curdle! Heavy Cream is the best option for this recipe!)
- 2 Cups Shredded Sharp Cheddar Cheese
-1 Cup Mozzarella Cheese ( FEEL FREE TO USE ANY COMBINATION OF CHEESES THAT YOU PREFER )
- 4oz Cream Cheese (Optional)
- 1/2 Tsp Seasoned Salt
- 1/2 Tsp Onion Powder
- 1/2 Tsp Black Pepper
- 1/2 Tsp Paprika
FAQs and Tidbits:
1. In the very beginning of the video, half and half is pictured, but heavy cream was use! The correction was made on screen.
2. Can I use milk or half and half?
While you can use any type of cream or milk that you prefer, heavy cream offers the highest fat content and gives the best results when making sauces. Lower percentage creams like half and half tend to curdle or separate at higher temperatures. That would be detrimental to your cheese sauce making it gritty or lumpy!
3. Do not over cook the macaroni! It could make your final dish mushy.
4. The cream cheese is totally optional but adds an extra richness and thickness to the cheese sauce. For a sauce with a thinner result, the cream cheese can be left out.
5. If your sauce gets too thick from too much cheese, you can always add a few tablespoons of more cream to thin it out!
6. When making macaroni and cheese, good quality cheese makes a huge difference in the end product. The most cost efficient way to substitute expensive bags of shredded cheese like Tillamook or Sargento is to just shred your own! It gives the best results every time!
