Parmesan/Asiago/Romano Cheese Blend – one of my favorite blends of cheeses to use for everything. Gives the mac and cheese a deliciously creamy, nutty flavor. Gruyere Cheese – one of the best melting cheeses. Other cheddar will work, but it won’t pack quite the flavor punch. Cheddar Cheese – I recommend sharp cheddar to cut through the richness of the dish. Sour Cream – one of my secret ingredients to provide tang and creaminess!.

Evaporated Milk – adds a caramel-like flavor and gives body and richness to the sauce. All-Purpose Flour – helps to thicken the cheese sauce. Unsalted Butter – adds a rich flavor and combines with the flour to make a roux, which thickens our sauce. Macaroni is the perfect shape to soak up the cheesy sauce.

Today’s baked macaroni and cheese not only has a creamy, custard center, but it’s PACKED with cheesy flavor thanks to my special blend of cheeses.
They were creamy, yes, but flavorful and cheesy? Not so much. I found that many homemade recipes were lacking in flavor. I was never a homemade mac and cheese fan before I made my one pot mac and cheese. Most of us probably picture that pretty blue box when we think of mac and cheese, but today, I say “move OVER boxed mac” and hellllooo baked mac and cheese.
