How To Make Stouffer's Mac and Cheese (Copycat)
This copycat Stouffer's mac and cheese dish mixes whole milk and 2 kinds of cheese for a creamy & rich bite that's ready in 35 minutes.
Ingredients
- 1 lb elbow macaroni
- 8 tbsp butter
- 1⁄4 cup flour
- 2 tbsp flour
- 5 cups whole milk
- 1½ lbs sharp cheddar cheese, (about 5 cups) shredded
- ½ lb American cheese , (about 9 slices)
- salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the pasta to al dente, drain.
-
In a large saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Sprinkle the flour over and whisk in. Cook the roux for 1 to 2 minutes to cook off the raw flour taste.
-
Slowly whisk in the milk until smooth. Simmer until slightly thickened, whisking occasionally so the bottom doesn't burn.
-
Add the cheese, 1 handful at a time, whisking well after each one and not adding any more cheese until the previous handful is fully melted and incorporated. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Add the drained pasta to the cheese sauce and stir to combine.
-
Pour into a 9x13-inch dish. If desired, bake at 375 for 15 to 20 minutes.
-
Serve and enjoy.
