Provided by Millie Peartree

Categories     nut-free    vegetarian    Sunday lunch    weeknight meals    comfort food

Total Time 50 minutes

Prep Time 15 minutes

Cook Time 0S

Yield 8-10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 lb.

macaroni

1

stick butter, melted (plus more butter for baking dish)

4 c.

extra-sharp cheddar cheese, divided 

2 c.

Colby jack-cheddar blend

3

large eggs

2 c.

whole milk

Salt and pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350° and butter a large, deep baking dish. In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook macaroni according to package instructions until just al dente. Drain and set aside.  In a large bowl, combine cooked pasta and butter and season with salt and pepper to taste. Stir in 2 cups cheddar cheese. Add half of the macaroni mixture to prepared baking dish. Sprinkle Colby-cheddar cheese blend over pasta mixture, then top with another layer of pasta (similar to making a lasagna).  In a medium bowl, beat together eggs and milk then pour evenly over pasta.  Cover baking dish with aluminum foil and bake for 25 to 35 minutes. Do not overbake! It may be a bit jiggly when you take it out of the oven.  Turn on oven broiler. Top with the remaining cheddar cheese. (I add a little more Colby jack as well) and broil until golden! It will firm up as it cool.

SOUTHERN BAKED MAC AND CHEESE RECIPE | FOOD NETWOR…
This rich and decadent baked pasta is a Southern Black staple for holidays and special occasions. Steering away from the standard stovetop mac, this version includes three kinds of cheese and bakes up like a casserole with a crispy, golden top. The addition of eggs makes it similar to a cheesy, savory custard. Warning: This is not diet food!

SOUTHERN MACARONI AND CHEESE RECIPE - NYT COOKING
There is macaroni and cheese, and then there is special occasion macaroni and cheese like this one. Unlike most recipes, which start with a roux, this one begins with a milk-and-egg base, which gives the dish an incredibly rich, silky taste. It’s adapted from Millie Peartree, the owner of Millie Peartree Fish Fry & Soul Food restaurant in the Bronx, who has been making this dish since she was a little girl. The recipe was passed down in her family for generations, but because of the generous amount of cheese used, the dish was only made for events like Christmas and Thanksgiving. Extra-sharp Cheddar adds tartness and a layer of Colby Jack creates a gooey, molten center. If you can’t find a Colby Jack blend, shredded mozzarella or a Mexican-style blend will work in its place.

SOUTHERN MAC AND CHEESE RECIPE | KARDEA BROWN | FOOD N…
Kardea Brown’s grandma has been making this macaroni and cheese for more than 50 years — and before that, her great-grandmother made it. It’s a staple at family gatherings, especially during the holidays. Kardea put her own twist on the recipe by adding cream cheese and sour cream. “It creates a creamier texture and slightly tangy flavor,” she says.
