Mac And Cheese In A Potato
This is my very own twist on a great comfort dish. If you love potato's and mac and cheese, then this is for you.
Steps
Combine olive oil , garlic or garlic powder , salt and pepper into a bowl.
Brush on or rub onto potatoes.
Bake at 375f for an hour and a half.
Boil water for macaroni.
In a separate pot , add 2 tablespoons of butter.
When melted , add the flour and keep stirring.
Once the roux gets a golden brown color , add in chicken broth then add in cream.
At this time you should have the macaroni almost cooked and ready to strain.
Now start to add the cheese into the roux one small handle full at a time.
Make sure cheese is completely melted before adding another handful.
Now shut off the flame to your cheese sauce and drain your macaroni.
Add macaroni slowly into sauce.
Sit a side and let cool.
Take potatoes out of oven and let cool.
Slice in halves and core out middle of potatoes.
Take remaining butter and place into center of potato skins.
Now , scoop macaroni into potatoes and sprinkle cheese on top of potatoes.
Bake for 10 minutes on 350f then move to broiler and broil tops.
