    This macaroni and cheese was the best i have ever had. I made it a few years ago and got rave reviews from family and friends then... but i think i out did myself with this one. I will never use boxed mac and cheese again. I did tweek it a bit by lowering the mustard seed by about half(because i am not a big fan of mustard and did not include the hot sauce because I figure hot sauce can be added as a personal preference, other then that, i followed the recipe to a tee and it came out perfect. Cream Cheesey and delicious. I did use a little colbyjack mixed in with 8Oz of Extra Sharp cheddar because that was all the cheddar i had on hand. i would recommend this recipe to anyone who loves mac and cheese. You won't go wrong with this one.

    My family absolutely loves this creamy macaroni and cheese recipe! I love it too. In the time it takes to boil pasta, plus about 5 minutes, I have a simple main dish ready to go. The recipe is very forgiving too. I've used a blend of cheeses, a dollop of mustard, different pastas...no matter what I do it turns out delicious! I also suggest adjusting the hot sauce to your taste...especially if feeding this to children, but the sauce method is perfect. No need to mess with that. And please, please, please do not think of adding American cheese or Velveeta...it will ruin the creamy cheesy goodness of this sauce!

    I have cooked mac & cheese somewhat like this for years. Al dente macaroni drained well, put it back in pan with 2 Tbs of butter; stir to coat macaroni, add 3-4 Tbs flour & stir (depending on how thick you like it, 2 cups of milk and and then I cut up about a 3/4 to 1 pound of Velveeta in chunks, cook it all in the pot stir constantly or it will stick & burn. When it is at the thickness you like take it off, it will thicken more as it cools. You can add any spices you like, but go light on the salt since the cheese contains a lot of salt. So it's season to taste & enjoy. Kids generally like this better than baked macaroni & cheese.

    I should have used my better judgement and cut back on the dry mustard, but I wanted to make this recipe exactly as written. Big mistake, the mustard overpowered everything and I could feel it in my sinuses. Back to the Blue Box for us. Sorry Alton, I wanted to love this recipe.

    (It would've been PERFECT and easy to make had I not used SWEETENED condensed milk by accident. It tasted like a dessert (in a bad way and unfortunately had to dump it since it was too sweet. (I had picked up a small bottle of the sweetened milk at Trader Joe's Big mistake! Oops. Will try again maybe with just whole milk.

    --novice cook (if you couldn't tell from me not reading the label on condensed milk!

    This is easy and delicious. The sauce-to-pasta ratio for this recipe is quite high, so you may want to up the macaroni content if that's not how you like it.
