[quote=Anonymous]Here's mine:

1 lb. elbow macaroni
16 ounces of grated cheese--mix of half sharp cheddar and half colby jack/monterey jack 
4 cups whole milk 
6 Tbl butter
1/2 cup flour
1/4 tsp. onion powder
1/4 tsp. dry mustard 
------------------
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.

In a large pot of boiling salted water, add the macaroni and cook according to the directions on the package, 6 to 8 minutes. Drain well.

Meanwhile, heat the milk in a small saucepan, but don't boil it (I microwave it). Melt 6 tablespoons of butter in a large (4-quart) pot and add the flour. Cook over low heat for 2 minutes, stirring with a whisk. While whisking, slowly add the hot milk and cook for a minute or two more, until thickened and smooth. Off the heat, add the cheese, 1 teaspoon salt, black pepper, dry mustard and onion powder. Add the cooked macaroni and stir well. Pour into a 3-quart baking dish (I divide into two batches and cook on different nights).

Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, or until the sauce is bubbly and the macaroni is browned on the top.[/quote]
