Sorry Paula. I wanted to give this no stars. Cheese separated into unappetizing curds and oil. Clumpy texture, no taste. Never again. (I tried this recipe out of curiosity. Sadly, there's no way around it. In my experience, to make delicious mac n cheese you have to make a white sauce and melt the cheese into. Shortcuts just don't do it...

I've made this recipe many times and my family loves it. I have altered it a bit though. I fry a diced onion in olive oil until cooked and mix it with an 8-ounce container of cottage cheese (instead of sour cream in the food processor until smooth. Then I add the butter and eggs. The onions give it great flavor.

I added smoked sausage to mine. It was good but hard to keep lit.

This is a wonderful recipe! The sour cream gives it an extra smoothness and bite! I followed Paula's directions to the tee, and it needs nothing else! Wouldn't change a thing!

I love this mac and cheese.... I'm from the south, and my family of very serious cooks are known by making homemade very difficult recipes that take way too long to cook. I do appreciate Paula from sharing this very simple, southern tasting mac and cheese that you still can enjoy friends and family after making it...ha ha lol Thanks a million Paula****

For those of you that said this was dry probably did not catch the key word "cooked" elbow noodles. If you make this recipe by measuring out 4 cups of uncooked noodles you actually have 8 cups of cooked noodles and this means you have doubled your noodles and did not double the rest of your ingredients, leaving you mac dry.. I followed this recipe to the "T" and the only complaint i have is that at the bottom in the crease of the pan it looked like scrambled eggs all the way around and if you are like me and my family we scrap all the corners by doing that you are getting a few bites that do taste like eggs. So i would just leave one or two eggs out. Bottom line is that this was not dry and by all means it is not Velveeta either, it was just Southern Mac and Cheese like granny use to make on Sundays :

The Mac n cheese was dry with not much flavor, my sister (who's Mac n cheese ALWAYS taste good said I shoud've used Carnation milk, and only Sharp cheese and make sure it's kinda juicy before baking. I didn't even try the recipe either before serving it this Thanksgiving cause Paula NEVER let's me down, but I was so embarrassed, I'm African American and the Mac n cheese CANNOT be dry! I learned I've gotta try it out before a big day ALWAYS now!
