Nanny G's Macaroni and Cheese

Recipe #83370 | 1¼ hours | 10 min prep | add private note

By: Vicki G.
Feb 8, 2004

This is my grandmother's recipe which I grew up on. It is my personal favorite, and without a doubt--the ultimate comfort food. I even love to eat it cold. It is one of my favorite side dishes, since it goes especially well with chicken and pork.

I made this on 1/13/08 for myself and SO's dinner.Since there was only two of us,I cut the recipe in half and it worked just fine. However there was a slight problem,in step three it said to add the remaining milk.I didn't see a step were you where supposed to add the first amount of milk.So I just added the full amount of milk in at step three.And since I cut this in half,the baking time was cut down to 25 minutes and it worked just fine. The issue with the milk was the reason I gave this a 4 star rating.The taste was very good.Thank you for posting and,"Keep Smiling "

    Yummm! I made this as a main dish and it was a great dinner on a cold, snowy, winter day. I used half sharp cheddar and half "extra-aged" white cheddar...using good cheese really makes this dish extra-special. Thanks for the recipe Vicki!

    Very, very good. This was my first time making "real" mac & cheese. I always thought it would be too much trouble, but this was SO easy! I used large elbow macaroni (just a personal preference) and I love how the cheese/egg/milk gets inside the pasta. I don't have a 1 qt. casserole so I used my 1.5 qt. meatloaf pan and it worked just fine. Yummy!

    This is wonderful mac and cheese. I made it as the directions said the first time and the last time I made it, I decreased the egg to 1 egg and added some sour cream. I think that the sour cream made it a creamier version. It is, however, really good exactly as the recipe is written. Thanks for sharing with us.
