Ingredients You\u2019ll Need<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Gather your ingredients ahead of time for a smooth cooking process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

For the pasta:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  • 12 oz elbow macaroni (or any small pasta shape)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • 1 teaspoon salt (for the boiling water)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
    <\/div>\n\n\n\n

    For the cheese sauce:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • 4 tablespoons all-purpose flour<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • 3 cups milk (whole milk preferred)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard (optional, for depth)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • \u00bd teaspoon salt<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • \u00bc teaspoon black pepper<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • \u00bc teaspoon paprika (optional, for color and subtle flavor)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • 2 cups sharp cheddar cheese, shredded<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • 1 cup Gruy\u00e8re or Monterey Jack cheese, shredded (optional for creaminess)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
      <\/div>\n\n\n\n

      For the topping:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

        \n
      • \u00bd cup breadcrumbs (plain or panko)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • 2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese, grated<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • Pinch of paprika for color (optional)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
        <\/div>\n\n\n\n
        \n\n\n\n

        Step 1: Preheat the Oven<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

        Preheat your oven to 350\u00b0F (175\u00b0C). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

        <\/div>\n\n\n\n

        Greasing a 9×13-inch baking dish or lightly spraying it with nonstick cooking spray will prevent sticking and make cleanup easier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        <\/div>\n\n\n\n
        \n\n\n\n

        Step 2: Cook the Pasta<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

        Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

        <\/div>\n\n\n\n

        Add the macaroni and cook according to package instructions until just al dente. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

        <\/div>\n\n\n\n

        Remember, the pasta will continue to cook slightly in the oven, so avoid overcooking. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

        <\/div>\n\n\n\n

        Drain the pasta and set aside.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        <\/div>\n\n\n\n
        \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
        <\/div>\n\n\n\n
        \n\n\n\n

        Step 3: Make the Cheese Sauce<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

        In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter until fully melted and slightly foamy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

        <\/div>\n\n\n\n

        Sprinkle in the flour, whisking constantly to form a smooth roux. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

        <\/div>\n\n\n\n

        Cook for 1\u20132 minutes to remove the raw flour taste.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        <\/div>\n\n\n\n

        Gradually add the milk, whisking continuously to prevent lumps. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

        <\/div>\n\n\n\n

        Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer until it thickens, about 3\u20135 minutes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

        <\/div>\n\n\n\n

        Stir in the Dijon mustard, salt, black pepper, and paprika.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        <\/div>\n\n\n\n

        Remove the sauce from the heat and stir in the shredded cheeses until smooth and fully melted. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

        <\/div>\n\n\n\n

        Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

        <\/div>\n\n\n\n

        The cheese sauce should be creamy, rich, and slightly thickened.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        <\/div>\n\n\n\n
        \n\n\n\n

        Step 4: Combine Pasta and Cheese Sauce<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

        Add the drained pasta to the cheese sauce, stirring until every piece is coated evenly. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

        <\/div>\n\n\n\n

        Pour the cheesy macaroni mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        <\/div>\n\n\n\n
        \n\n\n\n

        Step 5: Prepare the Topping<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

        In a small bowl, combine the breadcrumbs, melted butter, Parmesan cheese, and a pinch of paprika. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

        <\/div>\n\n\n\n

        Mix until the crumbs are evenly coated. Sprinkle the breadcrumb mixture evenly over the macaroni and cheese. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

        <\/div>\n\n\n\n

        This topping will give your dish that golden, crunchy texture that contrasts beautifully with the creamy pasta underneath.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        <\/div>\n\n\n\n
        \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
        <\/div>\n\n\n\n
        \n\n\n\n

        Step 6: Bake the Macaroni and Cheese<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

        Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 25\u201330 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and crispy and the cheese sauce is bubbling around the edges. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

        <\/div>\n\n\n\n

        For an extra-crispy topping, broil for the last 2\u20133 minutes, watching closely to prevent burning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        <\/div>\n\n\n\n
        \n\n\n\n

        Step 7: Cool Slightly and Serve<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

        Remove the macaroni and cheese from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes before serving. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

        <\/div>\n\n\n\n

        This allows the cheese sauce to set slightly, making it easier to scoop perfect portions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        Pro Tips for Perfect Old-Fashioned Macaroni and Cheese<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
        <\/div>\n\n\n\n
          \n
        1. Use sharp cheddar<\/strong> \u2013 The bold flavor balances the creaminess perfectly.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        2. Don\u2019t overcook pasta<\/strong> \u2013 Al dente pasta absorbs flavors without becoming mushy.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        3. Make a roux carefully<\/strong> \u2013 Cooking the butter and flour removes the raw taste and ensures a silky sauce.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        4. Add a little extra cheese to the sauce<\/strong> \u2013 This ensures maximum creaminess and flavor.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        5. Top with panko breadcrumbs<\/strong> \u2013 Panko gives a superior crunch compared to regular breadcrumbs.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

          Variations to Try<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

          • Bacon Mac & Cheese:<\/strong> Stir in crispy bacon bits before baking for a smoky flavor.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
