Our extra creamy and cheesy mac ‘n cheese takes just a few ingredients, and involves a super simple hack – replacing the flour, milk and butter mixture (or Bechamel sauce) with Blue Plate® Mayonnaise. It’s so easy and delicious!
Ingredients
- 8 ounces elbow macaroni (½ of a large package)
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup Blue Plate® Mayonnaise
- 1 cup sour cream
- 4 ounces cream cheese, room temperature
- 1 pound (about 4 cups) freshly grated sharp cheddar cheese
Directions
- Bring 6 quarts of water and salt to a boil over high heat in a large pot. Add macaroni and cook 9 to 11 minutes, stirring occasionally, or for the time on the package directions, until pasta is al dente. Drain and rinse.
- Combine mayonnaise, sour cream, cream cheese and cheese in the bottom of a very large bowl. Mix thoroughly.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Coat an 11×7-inch or 12×12-inch baking dish with nonstick spray.
- Pour drained macaroni into the bowl. Mix thoroughly, until pasta is evenly coated. Turn into prepared baking dish and smooth top with the back of a spoon.
- Bake 30 to 35 minutes, until the mixture does not slosh from side to side when the dish is gently shaken. Let sit 10 minutes before serving.
