add more milkI'm looking for a very easy, creamy and tasty recipe for macaroni and cheese. Does anyone out there have a fav
try to use carnation evaporated milk with your mac n cheese they tend to be creamier..use two kinds of cheese like mild cheddar and ricotta (or whatever you prefer) and if you're going to bake them sprinkle the top of it with parmesian cheese...mac n cheese tend to thicken as it cool so try to put a little more milk (a little soupy) for creamier effect...
I use Kimberly's recipe ALL the time. Everyone loves it. Seriously the creamiest mac and cheese ever and even tastes delicious reheated in the microwave :)
Creamy Macaroni and Cheese
Ingredients
1 tablespoon salt
1 pound elbow, shell or other bite-size shaped pasta
2 (12 fluid ounce) cans evaporated milk
1 cup chicken broth
3 tablespoons butter
1/3 cup flour
1 1/2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
Freshly ground black pepper
1 pound grated extra-sharp cheddar cheese
Method
Bring 2 quarts of water to boil in large soup kettle. Add salt and pasta. Using package directions as a guide, cook until al dente. Drain. To prevent sticking, drain and immediately pour onto a large lipped baking sheet and let cool while preparing sauce.
Meanwhile, microwave the milk and chicken broth in a 4-cup Pyrex measuring cup or bowl until hot and steamy (not boiling). Melt butter in the empty pasta pot; whisk in flour, then hot milk mixture. Continue to whisk until thick and bubbly, 3 to 4 minutes. Whisk in mustard, Parmesan and pepper. Turn off heat, stir in cheddar until melted.
Add drained pasta (and optional flavoring ingredients, see notes) to sauce, and stir until everything is well combined over low heat. Stir to heat through, and thin with a little water if the sauce is too thick. Serve hot.

I use the Kraft Deluxe Mac and Cheese and make it according to box, then I add a handful of sharp grated cheese 3/4 c. milk and l cup sour cream. Transfer to cassarole dish %26amp; top w/grated cheese and bake for about 20 minutes at 350. My kids have been raised on this recipe and still ask for it.
Try substituting a little sour cream in for half of the milk. My friend loved this one.
