This is only one my family wants, a deliciously creamy cheese sauce with an old-fashioned bread cube topping. I triple the bread crumb topping as there never seems to be enough of that!

SERVES 4 -6 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

Directions

  1. 1
    Under cook elbows; oven baking will finish the cooking process.

    In double boiler melt butter and add flour, mustard, salt and pepper.

    Slowly stir in milk and cook until smooth and creamy. Add grated cheese and stir until cheese has melted and sauce is smooth.
  4. 4
    Turn macaroni and finely chopped onion into casserole and pour cheese sauce over all. Toss well to coat. Top with rest of cheese.
  5. 5
    Toss bread with melted butter and sprinkle over all.
  6. 6
    Bake uncovered for 20 min @ 400°.

    Very good. I used 1 lb. of processed cheese cut into small cubes, plus several handfuls of shredded cheddar cheese. I also used 2 T. of flour when making the roux. The texture of the finished dish tasted a little grainy to me, not smooth and creamy - but that may have been from the cheddar cheese. The flavor was excellent, though. Made for ZWT4.

    Very nice, family friendly recipe that both my girls enjoyed. I wasn't sure when to add the onion so I zapped it for a couple of minutes in the microwave with a bit of butter and then added it when I stirred through the sauce. Next time I would probably use a bit more cheese.

    We loved this! Only changes I made was I added 1c of whipping cream and 1 cup of milk and I used some Monterey Jack Cheese and Cheddar Cheese and I also added a crushed chicken bouillon cube to the butter/flour and milk mixture. I also added alittle more black pepper. We like alot of black pepper I made my own bread crumbs using sour dough bread with seasoning salt. Delicious recipe! Thanks so much for sharing your family recipe!
