You will NEVER make macaroni and cheese from a box again after trying this recipe
Ingredients:
• 2 cups uncooked elbow macaroni (an 8 ounce box isn't quite 2 cups)
• 2 1/2 cups (about 10-ounces) grated sharp Cheddar cheese
• 3 eggs, beaten
• 1/2 cup sour cream
• 1 (10 3/4-ounce) can condensed Cheddar cheese soup
• 4 tablespoon (1/2 stick) butter, cut into pieces
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup whole milk
• 1/2 teaspoon dry mustard
• 1/2 teaspoon pepper
• Bread crumbs
Preheat the oven to 350F. Spray 13 by 9-inch baking dish with vegetable oil cooking spray. Boil the macaroni in a 2 quart saucepan in plenty of water until tender, about 7 minutes. Drain. Return the drained macaroni to the saucepan and add 2 cups of cheese. Stir until the cheese melts while the macaroni is still hot. Add eggs, sour cream, soup butter, salt, milk, mustard, and pepper and stir well.
Pour the macaroni into the prepared dish. Smooth the top and sprinkle the remaining ½ cup cheese on top. Sprinkle the bread crumbs on top of that to give the final dish a little crunch. Bake for 40 minutes until browned and bubbly.
