Making The Greatest Mac N Cheese Of All Time: A Guide

Hello, last night for my dad's birthday I made the greatest Mac N Cheese that I have ever made, and today I am here to share how it came out this way with you. This is what you'll need:

REMINDER: Never use cheese that is aged past 2 years, and never use pre-shredded cheese.

- 6 tablespoons of unsalted butter
-2/4ths a cup of flour
-2 cups of 2% milk
-2 cups of half and half
-2 cups of Gouda cheese
-2 cups of Cheddar cheese
-2 cups of Gruyère cheese
-1 cup of Mozzarella cheese
-Salt
-Pepper
-Paprika
-Garlic powder
-Breadcrumbs
-Bacon (OPTIONAL)

Now that you have all that, it's time to make the Mac N Cheese.

1.) Preheat the oven to 350, and start making your macaroni. Make sure to cook the macaroni one minute under al dente, as instructed by the package.

2.) Grate all but 1/2 a cup of Mozzarella, 1/3rd a cup of Gouda, 1/3rd a cup of Cheddar, and 1/3rd a cup of Gruyère into a big heat resistant bowl (the cheese left out should still be grated).

3.) Melt your butter in a saucepan over medium heat, constantly stirring. Only move onto step 4 when the butter has stopped popping and sizzling, and has become a brown texture.

4.) Add in your flour, still stirring constantly. Only move onto step 5 when the raw flour smell has dissipated from the saucepan.

5.) Add in the milk and half and half 1 cup at a time, slowly. Again, you want to be stirring constantly. Stir until smooth.

6.) Pour out the rue (contents of the saucepan) into the cheese bowl, leave out the chunks at the bottom of it.

7.) Mix the cheese in with the rue, making a cheese sauce.

8.) Put in the salt, pepper, paprika, and garlic powder. Add as much according to the tastes of yourself and the people you are cooking for. If you chose to have bacon you should also put it in to the cheese sauce now. Stir until smooth.

9.) Now you can combine the cheese sauce and the pasta into a casserole pan, stir it around to make sure the cheese sauce covers every bit of pasta.

10.) Sprinkle on top the rest of the cheese that was put aside earlier, as well as a lot of breadcrumbs.

11.) Bake in the oven for 30 minutes.

12.) Eat immediately.

Hopefully this turns out as good for you as it did for me, happy eating.

Sorry for the photo quality, it was night and I have a bad camera. Also I had no good way of uploading the picture to here.
