Ingredients
12 oz Dry Macaroni: Use any shape you prefer, though elbow macaroni is traditional. Cook according to package instructions until al dente, as the pasta will continue to cook in the sauce.
1/4 cup Butter: Adds richness and helps form the base of the cheese sauce.
1/4 cup Flour: Helps thicken the sauce to achieve a creamy consistency.
1 1/2 cups Milk: Whole milk works best for creaminess, but you can use any type of milk you prefer.
1 cup Light Cream (about 10-12% MF): Adds extra creaminess to the sauce. Heavy cream can be used for a richer flavor.
1/2 teaspoon Dry Mustard Powder: Enhances the cheese flavor and adds a subtle tang.
1 teaspoon Onion Powder: Adds depth and a mild onion flavor.
Salt & Pepper: To taste. Season the sauce to enhance the flavors.
1 can Condensed Cream of Cheddar Soup (optional, 10.75 oz): Adds an extra layer of cheese flavor and creaminess, but can be omitted if preferred.
4 cups Sharp Cheddar Cheese, divided: Provides the primary cheesy flavor. Shred your own cheese for the best melt and texture.
1/2 cup Fresh Parmesan Cheese: Adds a nutty, salty flavor that complements the cheddar.
