INSTRUCTIONS
Preheat the oven to 350 F.
Cook the macaroni according to the package directions. Drain well.
Meanwhile, in a large, heavy saucepan, melt the butter. Whisk in the flour
to make a paste. Gradually whisk in the milk. Bring to a simmer over medium
heat, whisking, until thickened, about 1 minute. Add the cheese, salt and
pepper and whisk until smooth.
Stir the cooked macaroni into the cheese sauce. Scrape into a shallow
2-quart baking dish.
Bake in the 350 oven, uncovered, until bubbly and lightly golden on top, 20
to 25 minutes. Add the extra shredded cheese for the last 5 minutes of
baking. Let stand 10 minutes before serving.
