Kraft Mac And Cheese Waffle Recipes

KRAFT MAC AND CHEESE WAFFLE

Steps:

• Prepare Dinner as directed on package; cool 5 min.
• Meanwhile, spray electric waffle iron with cooking spray. Heat iron to medium-high heat.
• Prepare cornbread batter in large bowl as directed on package. Stir in prepared Dinner and cheddar.
• Spoon about 1/2 cup Dinner mixture onto center of each waffle grid section. Close lid slowly, pressing gently to evenly distribute Dinner mixture. Cook 4 to 5 min. or until waffle is firm and golden brown. When done, lift waffle off grid with fork.
• Repeat with remaining Dinner mixture to make additional waffles.

MAC AND CHEESE WAFFLES WITH BACON

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
• Meanwhile, cook the bacon in a large skillet over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until crispy, 7 to 8 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon to a paper towel-lined plate. Pour bacon fat into a heatproof container (save for another use) and wipe the skillet clean with paper towels.
• Melt the butter in the large skillet over medium heat. Add the flour and whisk until tan in color, about 1 minute. Add the milk and bring up to a simmer, whisking every couple of minutes, until thick enough to coat the back of a spoon. Add the three cheeses in batches, whisking after each addition, until melted. Remove from the heat.
• Add the pasta to the boiling water and cook according to the package directions until al dente, then drain. Transfer to a large bowl, add 3/4 of the cheese sauce and 3/4 of the cooked bacon and stir to combine. Pour onto a rimmed baking sheet, spread it to the edges and refrigerate for 1 hour. Reserve the remaining cheese sauce for serving.
• Preheat your waffle iron to medium high. Spray with nonstick cooking spray and add enough mac and cheese to cover most of the iron. Press down hard to squeeze the waffle iron shut (don't worry if some mac and cheese falls out). Cook until golden brown, about 4 to 6 minutes.
• Meanwhile, reheat the reserved cheese sauce over low heat. Plate the waffle with a side of cheese sauce and garnish with some of the remaining bacon. Repeat with the remaining mac and cheese.

KRAFT® MAC AND CHEESE TUNA CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray a 9x13-inch baking dish with nonstick spray.
• Bring 6 cups water to a boil in a medium saucepan. Stir in macaroni from the box and cook for 7 minutes. Drain macaroni, then rinse under cold water and drain again. Set cheese sauce packet aside.
• Melt butter in the same saucepan over medium heat. Add milk and cheese sauce packet; mix well. Stir in condensed soup and cook until heated through, about 3 minutes.
• Combine drained macaronis, peas, and tuna in a bowl. Fold in the cheesy soup mixture. Pour mixture into the prepared baking dish.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes. Sprinkle with Cheddar cheese, then sprinkle French-fried onions over top. Bake until onions are brown and cheese is melted, another 5 minutes.

MAC 'N' CHEESE WAFFLE BURGERS RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Make the mac 'n' cheese waffles: In a large bowl, combine the mac 'n' cheese, flour, garlic powder, paprika, onion powder, cayenne, salt, black pepper, eggs, and cheddar cheese. (If you are using cold mac 'n' cheese, microwave briefly to loosen up for easier mixing). Mix well to combine.
• Heat the waffle iron to medium-high heat or 375°F (190°C).
• Scoop ¾ cup of the mac 'n' cheese mixture into each of the waffle divots. Close the waffle iron and cook for 8-10 minutes, until the waffles are golden brown and crispy all over. Remove the waffles from the iron (cutting into individual waffles with kitchen shears for easier removal) and repeat with the remaining mac 'n' cheese mixture. You should have 8 waffles total.
• Meanwhile, make the burger sauce: In a medium bowl, mix together the mayonnaise, ketchup, onion, sweet relish, white vinegar, and salt. Refrigerate until ready to use.
• Make the cheese sauce: In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium-low heat until bubbling. Whisk in the flour and cook for 1-2 minutes, until light golden brown, whisking continuously to prevent burning. Pour in the milk, whisking continuously to prevent clumping. Cook for 2-4 minutes, whisking occasionally to prevent burning, until slightly thickened and steaming. Remove the pot from the heat and whisk in the cheese and salt until melted and smooth.
• Transfer the sauce to a 2-cup liquid measuring cup and use an immersion blender to blend until completely smooth. Set aside until ready to use.
• Make the burgers: Heat a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat until smoking. Generously season the ground beef patties on both sides with salt and pepper. Cook the patties for 4-5 minutes on each side, depending on your desired doneness.
• Assemble the burgers: Spoon 1-2 tablespoons of the burger sauce onto a mac 'n' cheese waffle. Top with 2-4 pickle slices, ½ cup shredded lettuce, a burger patty, ¼-⅓ cup cheese sauce, 2 slices of bacon, and another mac 'n' cheese waffle. Repeat to make the remaining burgers.
• Serve immediately.
• Enjoy!

WAFFLED MACARONI AND CHEESE

Steps:

• Make the macaroni and cheese:
• Preheat the oven to 375°F. Butter a 9x5-inch loaf pan and set it aside.
• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat. When the water is at a rolling boil, add the pasta. Cook the pasta until it is slightly underdone, checking a few minutes before the cooking time on the package directions. (If you bite into a piece, you should be able to see a very thin core of uncooked pasta.) Drain the pasta and set aside.
• Melt the 3 tablespoons butter in a large saucepan over medium-low heat. Add the flour to the melted butter, whisking constantly. Continue to whisk for 2 minutes. Add the milk, 1/2 cup at a time, waiting until the mixture is thoroughly combined before adding more. Whisk constantly over medium-low heat until the mixture thickens to the consistency of heavy cream, about 5 minutes.
• Turn off the heat, add the mustard, 1 1/4 teaspoon salt, and pepper, and stir. Add the shredded cheddar cheese a handful at a time, stirring constantly until the cheese melts. Add the pasta to the cheese mixture, stir to coat thoroughly, and then pour the cheese-covered pasta into the prepared loaf pan.
• Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese on top and bake until the top is brown and crispy, about 20 minutes.
• Set aside to cool for an hour, then cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until the macaroni is well chilled and the cheese has solidified (at least 2 hours, or overnight).
• Make the waffles:
• Cut the macaroni and cheese into slices about 1/2-inch thick.
• Preheat the waffle iron on medium. Preheat the oven on its lowest setting.
• In a small bowl, beat the egg with a pinch each of salt and pepper.
• Set out 3 shallow bowls. Measure the flour into the first. In the second bowl, place the beaten eggs. Mix the bread crumbs with the cheese in the third.
• Take a slice of the macaroni and cheese, and, handling it gently, coat both sides in the flour. Then dunk both sides in the egg. Finally, coat both sides with the bread crumbs, pressing the mixture so it sticks. Set aside the slice and repeat with the remaining slices.
• Coat both sides of the waffle iron grid with nonstick spray. Place the macaroni and cheese slices in the waffle iron, close the lid, and cook until heated through and golden brown, 3 minutes.
• The extraction process can be tricky. With a silicone spatula, loosen the edges of the macaroni and cheese. Use the spatula to gently pry the macaroni and cheese from the waffle iron and then support the bottom with the spatula while you lift it out with tongs.
• Repeat Steps 5 through 7 until all of the macaroni and cheese has been waffled. Keep the finished macaroni and cheese warm in the oven.
