MOM'S BAKED MACARONI AND CHEESE
Mom's cooking is the best! Especially when it's her family-favorite Baked Macaroni and Cheese, loaded with melty Vermont white cheddar. Around our parts, it's just not a holiday meal without it.

Steps:
- PREPARE MACARONI & CHEESE LAYERS: Cook macaroni in salted water; drain.
- In a 1 & 1/2-quart baking dish coated with non-stick cooking spray, layer macaroni and cheese in this order: 1. 1/2 of the macaroni, 2. one cup cheese, 3. remaining macaroni, and 4. one cup cheese. Set aside.
- PREPARE WHITE SAUCE: Melt butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Remove from heat and whisk in flour. Return to heat and gradually whisk in milk. Add salt and pepper. Bring to a boil, stirring; boil gently for about one minute until sauce is thickened.
- Pour white sauce evenly over the top of the macaroni. Top with remaining one cup cheese.
- For creamy macaroni and cheese, bake immediately. For "firmer" macaroni and cheese, cover and refrigerate overnight or for at least 4-6 hours before baking.
- BAKE: Bake at 375℉ for 35-45 minutes until cheese is melted and top is lightly browned.
- For a 9x13-inch pan, I make 1 & 1/2 times the recipe.
- For cheese, I always use Cabot brand Vermont sharp or extra-sharp white cheddar.
MY MOTHER'S BAKED MACARONI AND CHEESE
I loved this macaroni and cheese as a child and still love it today, it is comfort food at it's best. I think the crushed potato chips as a topping and dry mustard as an ingredient make her version of macaroni and cheese stand out.

MOM'S BAKED MAC AND CHEESE
This is a recipe that my grandmother found years ago. My mother tweaked it and it's definitely a comfort food classic in my household. I personally prefer extra-sharp Cracker Barrel but use whatever cheddar you prefer.

- Meanwhile, boil the macaroni for about 5 minutes. Pour macaroni into a glass casserole dish and then pour cheese sauce over. Stir until macaroni is coated.

I've been eating this macaroni & cheese since I was a little girl. I'm not sure where my mom got the recipe from, but it is delicious. We usually sprinkle with some parmesan cheese before browning.
