Home Baked Macaroni Cheese

Before mac & cheese came in a cardboard box, it was made from scratch. My mom made the best i ever tasted, but i don't have her recipe - so i made this one up. I take it to all the family potluck dinners, and get rave reviews! This recipe fills a very large (bigger than 9x12) casserole dish.

Steps

Prepare macaroni per package instructions.
Drain macaroni well , return to pot while still warm.
Add velveeta , cream cheese , salt & pepper.
Stir until cheeses are melted , then add cream and stir until a creamy sauce has formed.
Pour 1 / 2 the macaroni into a non-stick or greased casserole dish.
Sprinkle 8 oz of the shredded cheese on top.
Add the rest of the macaroni and sprinkle another 4 oz of the cheese on top.
Cover casserole.
Bake at 375 degrees for 30 minutes.
Remove cover , sprinkle remainder of shredded cheese on top and bake an additional 10-15 minutes , until cheese is bubbly and just beginning to brown around the edges.

Ingredients

macaroni, velveeta cheese, cream cheese, half-and-half cream, cheese, salt, pepper
