2-Minutes! Quick & Easy Mac and Cheese! | Candied yams | Macaroni and Cheese Recipe #recipe #food #tasty “Hey busy parents! Today, we’re making a quick and easy mac and cheese that’s perfect for those hectic weeknights. Let’s get started. First, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Once boiling, add 8 ounces of elbow macaroni and cook until it’s al dente—usually about 7 to 8 minutes. Be sure to stir occasionally to prevent sticking. While the pasta cooks, let’s move on to the sauce. In a medium saucepan, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Once melted, sprinkle in 2 tablespoons of all-purpose flour. Stir constantly for about a minute. This step is crucial to cooking out the raw flour taste and creating a smooth sauce base. Now, slowly pour in 2 cups of milk, continuing to whisk to avoid any lumps. As the milk heats, you’ll notice the sauce starting to thicken—this should take about 3-4 minutes. You want a consistency that coats the back of a spoon. Lower the heat and gradually add 2 cups of shredded cheddar cheese. Stir until the cheese is fully melted and the sauce is silky smooth. For extra flavor, you can also add a pinch of salt, a dash of black pepper, and a little mustard powder or garlic powder if you like. These seasonings give the sauce a deeper, more complex flavor. Once the pasta is cooked, drain it well and then immediately add it to the cheese sauce. Stir until every piece of pasta is covered in that creamy goodness. For a crispy topping, you can pour the mac and cheese into a baking dish, sprinkle breadcrumbs mixed with a bit of melted butter on top, and broil it for 2-3 minutes. This step is optional but adds a nice crunchy texture. And there you have it—a quick, easy, and delicious mac and cheese that’s sure to be a hit with the entire family. It’s cheesy, creamy, and ready in under 20 minutes. Perfect for those busy nights when you need something satisfying and fast.
