COPYCAT BOXED MACARONI AND CHEESE



Copycat Boxed Macaroni and Cheese image

This recipe originally comes from King Arthur Flour, which is where I buy my cheddar cheese powder. You can buy cheese powder from many sites on the web, and sometimes you can find it at baking supply stores; many people use it to make cheese bread or crackers. Obviously, your end product will depend on the kind of cheese powder you buy - the one I use is real cheddar which has been dried and ground to a powder, so the sauce turns out white, not day-glo orange ;) But if you want the orange stuff there are several places on the web to buy it. Depending on what sort of cheese powder you get, this may or may not taste close to Kraft macaroni and cheese. I don't know what sort of cheese powder you'll be able to get, so I can't guarantee that. If you are trying to replicate Kraft exactly, you may have to try to find their powdered cheese; sometimes I have seen it for sale in canisters on its own (i.e. not as part of the boxed mac and cheese). The 6 ounces of macaroni listed below measures out to 1 and 1/2 cups, dry.

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 pound dried short pasta, such as macaroni, penne, or fusilli
Kosher salt
1 1/4 cups whole or low-fat milk
1 cup cheddar cheese powder (see Cooks' Note)
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, cut into pieces

Steps:

  • Cook pasta in a large pot of boiling salted water, stirring occasionally, until just al dente. Meanwhile, whisk milk and cheese powder in a medium bowl.

Serve immediately.
