Ingredients
- 1 package (454 grams) dry macaroni pasta (cooked to package directions)
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 2 cups whole milk
- 2 cups grated sharp cheddar cheese
- 1/4 cup Cheez Whiz

- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder (just a pinch)

How to Make
-
Step 1: Melt butter over medium heat. Add the flour and whisk the flour into the butter continuously for about 6-7 minutes (until mixture is light brown.)
-
Step 2: Slowly add the whole milk whisking continuously until smooth; bring mixture to a boil and reduce heat to a simmer while whisking continuously. Whisk mixture about 5 minutes or until slightly thickened (if it gets too thick, just add a little more milk.) Reduce heat to low, add cheeses, salt, spices and dijon and stir until cheese is melted. Remove from heat and in a large pot mix the cheese sauce with the cooked macaroni, stir until thoroughly mixed.
