CREAMY STOVETOP MACARONI AND CHEESE



Creamy Stovetop Macaroni and Cheese image

No need for a flour-and-butter roux in this easy stovetop version of an old favorite: The cream cheese adds body and richness. If your mac and cheese gets a little stiff as it cools, just stir in some warm water to smooth it out - it works like a charm!

Categories     side-dish

Time 45m

Yield 8 to 10 servings (about 8 cups)

Number Of Ingredients 7

Kosher salt
1 pound elbow macaroni
2 1/2 cups half-and-half
1/8 to 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 pound cream cheese, room temperature
8 ounces sharp Cheddar, shredded (about 3 cups)
3 ounces Gruyere, shredded (about 1 cup)

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the macaroni and cook until it is al dente, about 6 minutes. Strain, reserving 1 cup of the pasta water. Set aside.

CREAMY STOVE TOP MACARONI AND CHEESE



Creamy Stove Top Macaroni and Cheese image

My family's favorite macaroni and cheese - cooked on top of the stove rather than baked! It's flavor is enhanced by the addition of prepared mustard. Little children love it because it's so creamy and cheese-y. For potlucks, make ahead and reheat in microwave, stirring, just before carrying to dinner.
