Provided by Jordan Kenna
Categories Snacks
Yield 18 balls
Number Of Ingredients 11
Steps:
- Crush cheese puffs into a fine powder and set aside.
- In a saucepan over medium heat, add the butter. Once the butter is melted, add milk, cheddar, mozzarella, and cream cheese. Whisk until all the cheese has melted and sauce is smooth.
- Pour cheese sauce over cooked pasta, stirring to ensure thorough coverage of the noodles.
- Cover and refrigerate the cheese-coated pasta for at least 2 hours, allowing for it to cool completely and for the cheese sauce to bind the pasta together. This recipe also works well with leftover mac 'n' cheese.
- Using your hands, take the chilled mac 'n' cheese and form it into 1-inch (2 ½ cm) balls.
- Dredge the balls in flour, followed by egg before finally coating them in the powdered cheese puffs.
- Heat the oil to 350˚F (180˚C) and fry the mac 'n' cheese balls until the outside is crispy, about 2 minutes. Once done frying, transfer to a wire rack to drain. Lightly sprinkle with salt before serving.
- Enjoy!

Provided by McCormick
Categories Dinner
Yield 12 servings
Number Of Ingredients 16
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400ºF (200°C) with a 12-cup nonstick muffin tin inside.
- Make the McCormick® chili: Heat the canola oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add the onion and sauté until the onion is translucent, 3-5 minutes.
- Add the ground beef and cook, stirring with a wooden spoon to break up the beef, for 5-7 minutes, until the meat is browned.
- Drain any excess fat from the meat mixture, then add the McCormick® Chili Seasoning and water. Mix and cook for another 4-5 minutes, until the spices are well incorporated. Remove the pan from the heat.
- Make the mac 'n' cheese: Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the flour and cook, stirring frequently to break up any clumps, for 5 minutes, or until the roux is light golden brown. Reduce the heat to medium. Slowly pour in the milk and cook, whisking constantly, until thickened, about 8 minutes. Do not let the mixture come to a boil.
- Turn off the heat, then add 1½ cups shredded cheddar cheese and the salt. Whisk until the cheese is melted and well incorporated. Add the cooked macaroni to the cheese sauce and stir with a wooden spoon until the noodles are well coated.
- Add the chili to the mac 'n' cheese and stir until well incorporated.
- Carefully remove the hot muffin tin from the oven and grease with nonstick spray.
- Sprinkle a heaping tablespoon of shredded cheddar cheese into each cup.
- Fill each cup with the chili mac 'n' cheese, pressing down slightly with the back of a spoon to flatten the tops.
- Place the muffin tin on a baking sheet, then bake for 15-20 minutes or until the sides of the mac 'n' cheese cups are bubbling. Remove from the oven and let cool for at least 20 minutes to set up.
- Using a plastic knife to avoid scratching the muffin tin, loosen around the edges of each chili mac 'n' cheese bite. Then remove from the pan. If the cups are falling apart, let cool for another 10 minutes.
- Top the chili mac 'n' cheese bites with sour cream, shredded cheddar cheese, scallions, and jalapeño slices, if desired.
- Enjoy!

HOW TO MAKE THE BEST BAKED MAC AND CHEESE RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C).
- Bring a large pot of well-salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook for 2 minutes less than recommended on the package (you want the pasta to have a slight bite; it will finish cooking while it bakes).
- In a large bowl, combine 8 ounces shredded cheddar with the American cheese and cornstarch. Use your fingers to gently toss until all of the cheese is coated.
- Melt the butter in a large pot over medium heat. As the butter begins to sizzle, add the mustard powder and cayenne and stir to combine. Toast the spices until the butter turns golden brown, about 1 minute.
- Slowly whisk in the milk and heavy cream. Continue whisking until the milk begins to simmer, with small bubbles rapidly rising to the surface, about 3 minutes.
- Whisk the egg in a small bowl, then temper it by slowly adding in spoonfuls of the simmering milk mixture while continuing to whisk until incorporated.
- Slowly drizzle the tempered egg back into the milk mixture, whisking vigorously until the egg is fully incorporated.
- Remove the pot from the heat and add the cheddar cheese mixture, a small handful at a time, whisking between each addition to make sure the cheese melts evenly (mix quickly enough that the mixture does not cool too rapidly, but slowly enough that the emulsion does not break).
- Add the cooked pasta to the pot and gently fold to coat with the sauce, then season with 1 teaspoon salt. Pour the pasta and sauce into an 8-inch square baking dish with 2-inch-high sides (at this point, the pasta can be wrapped and refrigerated for up to 3 days).
- In a medium bowl, combine the remaining 2 ounces of cheddar cheese, the mozzarella cheese, and Parmesan cheese. Sprinkle on top of the pasta.
- Bake the mac and cheese until the cheese is melted and beginning to bubble around the edges, about 20 minutes. Turn the broiler on high and broil the mac and cheese until the cheese begins to brown all over, about 5 minutes. Let the mac and cheese sit for 5 minutes for the sauce set and cool slightly.
- Serve warm.
- Enjoy!
