Here are the written instructions for this. BUT DON'T USE DEM! JUST LOOK AT DA PROJECT THAT I SPENT HOURS ON! ~Ingredients~ Pasta: 1 pound (about 450g) elbow macaroni Butter: 1/4 cup (about 4 tbsp) unsalted butter Flour: 1/4 cup all-purpose flour Milk: 3 cups whole milk, half-and-half, or evaporated milk Cheese: 3 cups (shredded) sharp cheddar, Gruyère, or a blend of your favorite melting cheeses (avoid pre-shredded cheese for a smoother sauce) Seasonings: Salt, black pepper, and optional additions like paprika, mustard powder, or hot sauce. ~Instructions~ Step 1: Cook the Pasta Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the macaroni and cook until it is al dente, or about 1 to 2 minutes less than the package directions specify (the pasta will cook more if you choose to bake it later). Drain the pasta and set it aside. Step 2: Make the Roux and Béchamel In a large pot or saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Whisk in the flour, salt, and pepper, cooking for about one minute until the mixture is bubbling and lightly golden. Slowly whisk in the milk until the mixture is smooth. Continue to cook and whisk until the sauce thickens to the consistency of heavy cream or gravy, without boiling vigorously. Step 3: Add the Cheese Remove the pot from the heat. Gradually add the shredded cheese, one handful at a time, whisking continuously until each addition is completely melted and the sauce is smooth. Adding the cheese off the heat prevents the sauce from becoming grainy. Stir in any optional seasonings at this stage. Step 4: Combine and Serve Add the cooked pasta to the cheese sauce and stir until the pasta is evenly coated. For Stovetop Mac and Cheese: Serve immediately. For Baked Mac and Cheese: Pour the mixture into a greased baking dish, top with additional shredded cheese or breadcrumbs, and bake at 350°F (175°C) for 20-30 minutes, or until bubbly and golden brown on top.
