THE BEST HOMEMADE BAKED MAC AND CHEESE
The BEST Homemade Mac and Cheese of your LIFE. Outrageously cheesy, ultra creamy, and topped with a crunchy Panko-Parmesan topping, this mac and cheese recipe is most definitely a keeper. I used three different cheese and a homemade cheese sauce to take this macaroni and cheese recipe over the top.

CLASSIC BAKED MACARONI AND CHEESE
Think Stouffer's without the freezer. While it can be enjoyed straight from the pot, this macaroni and cheese has a slightly looser sauce than the stovetop variety to allow for thickening in the oven. Bread crumbs, while optional, make it truly spectacular.

Steps:
- Cook pasta in a large pot of salted boiling water until it's barely al dente. (It should be more al dente than your average pasta: It's going to continue to cook in the oven.) Drain and set aside.
- Meanwhile, heat butter in a medium pot over medium heat. (The pot should be large enough to hold all the pasta when cooked.) Whisk in flour and cook, whisking constantly, until the flour is foamy and just starting to turn a light golden brown, about 4 minutes. Slowly whisk in milk to avoid clumping. Add garlic, paprika and season with salt and pepper. Bring to a simmer, whisking constantly and paying special attention to the edges of the pot to make sure the flour mixture is totally incorporated.
- Add grated cheese and whisk to blend until the cheese is completely melted. (The sauce will seem thick at first and thin out as the cheese melts; it will thicken while it bakes.) Season with salt and pepper and add cooked pasta, stirring to coat well.
- Heat oven to 425 degrees. Line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil (to catch any cheesy drips).
- Make the optional topping: Combine bread crumbs, melted butter and Parmesan, if using, in a medium bowl. Season with salt and pepper and, using your hands, mix well to ensure the bread crumbs are evenly coated.
- Transfer the macaroni and cheese mixture to a 3-quart or 9 x 13 baking dish and scatter bread crumbs, if using, evenly over the top. Place on prepared baking sheet and bake until macaroni and cheese is bubbling, thickened and creamy, and bread crumbs are evenly golden brown, 25 to 30 minutes. Let cool slightly before serving.

BAKED MACARONI AND CHEESE
Steps:
- Gather the ingredients.
- In a small saucepan over low heat, melt 3 tablespoons butter. Or place it in a medium-size microwave-safe dish and heat until melted, about 15 seconds.
- Add panko and Parmesan to melted butter and stir until well combined. Set panko topping aside.
- Gather the ingredients.
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil and salt it generously.
- Meanwhile, in a large heavy saucepan over medium heat, melt remaining 4 tablespoons butter. Whisk in flour and red pepper flakes, if using. Cook, stirring, until flour is blond in color, about 4 minutes.
- Gradually whisk in milk. Increase heat to medium-high and let sauce come to a simmer, whisking frequently. Reduce heat to medium-low and let sauce simmer for about 5 minutes or until it starts to thicken.
- Add cream, grated cheese, Parmesan, mustard, salt, and black pepper, stirring until everything is smooth. Taste for seasoning, adding more salt and/or black pepper as necessary.
- Add pasta to boiling water and cook until barely al dente (follow package directions, but stop a minute or two before pasta is completely tender). Set aside 1 cup of pasta cooking water, then drain pasta.
- Whisk reserved pasta cooking water into cheese sauce, combining it thoroughly.
- Add pasta to cheese sauce and stir to combine.
- Heat oven to 400 F. Butter a shallow 4-quart baking dish.
- Spoon pasta mixture into prepared baking dish. There will appear to be a lot of sauce, but not to worry. Some of it will be absorbed into pasta as it cooks, and saucy is better than dry.
- Place baking dish on a sheet pan to catch any drips and sprinkle panko topping evenly over pasta. Bake until golden and bubbling, 30 to 40 minutes.
- Remove pasta from oven. Let sit for a few minutes. Serve hot.

This is a combination of different recipes I have tried. =) If you can't find the panko crumbs, regular bread crumbs will do just fine.
