Mama's
Macaroni and Cheese
Rhonda's mother used cheddar cheese in this recipe. When Rhonda started making it herself, she discovered she preferred the mild taste of Colby Jack. You may substitute your own favorite cheese, if you'd like.
1/2
stick butter, cut into 1/4 inch pieces
2
cups Colby Jack cheese
1
egg, lightly beaten
2
cups milk
Salt
and pepper to taste
Preheat
oven to 375 degrees.
Boil
macaroni noodles until tender, approximately 9 minutes.
Layer
the butter in the bottom of a long, shallow baking dish.
Drain
noodles and pour into the dish while still hot, stirring to melt the butter.
Add
one cup of the cheese to the noodles and stir.
Add
the egg, salt, and pepper.
Pour
the milk over the noodle mixture. It will be very soupy
Sprinkle
the remaining cheese on top and bake for 40 minutes, or until done.
To
test for doneness, insert a spoon into the center of the dish and pull the
noodles back. If the juices are white, continue cooking. If the juices are
clear, the macaroni is done.
