Categories     comfort food    dinner    main dish    side dish    snack

Total Time 30 minutes

Prep Time 15 minutes

Cook Time 15 minutes

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 c.

dried macaroni

1

whole egg

1/4 c.

(1/2 stick or 4 tablespoons) salted butter

1/4 c.

all-purpose flour

2 1/2 c.

whole milk

2 tsp.

(heaping) dry mustard, more if desired

1 lb.

cheese (such as cheddar, jack and/or fontina), grated

1/2 tsp.

salt, more to taste

1/2 tsp.

seasoned salt, more to taste

1/2 tsp.

ground black pepper

Optional spices: cayenne pepper, paprika and/or thyme

Steps:

  • Cook the macaroni until very firm. The macaroni should be too firm to eat right out of the pot. Drain.  In a small bowl, beat the egg. In a large pot, melt the butter and sprinkle in the flour. Whisk together over medium-low heat. Cook the mixture for 5 minutes, whisking constantly. Don’t let it burn. Pour in the milk, add the mustard, and whisk until smooth. Cook for 5 minutes until very thick. Reduce the heat to low. Take 1/4 cup of the sauce and slowly pour it into the beaten egg, whisking constantly to avoid cooking the egg. Whisk together till smooth. Pour the egg mixture into the sauce, whisking constantly. Stir until smooth. Add in the cheese and stir to melt. Add the salt, seasoned salt and pepper. Taste the sauce and add more salt and seasoned salt as needed! DO NOT UNDERSALT. Pour in the drained, cooked macaroni and stir to combine. Serve immediately (very creamy) or pour into a buttered baking dish, top with extra cheese, and bake at 350˚ for 20 to 25 minutes, or until bubbly and golden on top.

TOP SECRET RECIPES | MCDONALD'S QUARTER POUNDER WITH CHEESE
What is the McDonald's sign referring to when it says "Over 100 billion served?" That's not the number of customers served, but the number of beef patties sold since McDonald's first opened its doors in the forties. A hamburger counts as one patty. A Big Mac counts as two. McDonald's sold its 11 billionth hamburger in 1972, the same year that this sandwich, the Quarter Pounder, was added to the growing menu. That was also the year large fries were added and founder Ray Kroc was honored with the Horatio Alger Award (the two events are not related). In 1972, the 2,000th McDonald's opened its doors, and by the end of that year McDonald's had finally become a billion-dollar corporation.
