Easy Macaroni and Cheese

During this month, I've been posting different versions of my favorite holiday recipes. Last time it was "Real Simple" Macaroni and Cheese (which really isn't). Today I have a great recipe for Macaroni and Cheese to share. This recipe is so easy to make and it doesn't involve cooking milk and cheese over a stove. I made this recipe last Easter and my family enjoyed a lot more than the other Macaroni and Cheese I used to make.


Ingredients:

1 box (16 oz.) elbow macaroni
1 lb. grated Cheddar Cheese
1/2 lb. grated Muenster Cheese
1 pint heavy cream
3 eggs
1 stick of butter

Directions:
  • Preheat oven to 350F
  • Cook the noodles according to the package directions
  • While noodles cook, grate cheeses
  • Place a few pats of butter in the bottom of a rectangular casserole dish
  • Pour 1/2 the noodles in the bottom of the dish
  • Sprinkle 1/2 the cheese and top with a few pats of butter
  • Pour the remaining noodles on the top, sprinkle with the remaining cheese and top with more pats of butter
  • Crack the eggs in a bowl, and beat the cream and eggs until smooth
  • Pour the cream and egg mixture over the top of the macaroni (do it slowly giving the cream time to get to the bottom of the pan)
  • Bake for 20 minutes
  • Continue to bake until the cheese is bubbly and a little brown on the edges

Enjoy!

That sounds sinfully, sinfully delicious. Too bad I can't have it for the next two weeks. And then possibly not for another year after that. ;)
