Ingredients
Directions
- Cook the elbow macaroni in a large pot of salted boiling water according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain using a colander and set aside.
- In the same pot, melt the butter over medium heat. Once melted, add the flour and whisk together to form a roux.
- Slowly pour in the milk while continuously whisking to avoid lumps. Cook until the mixture thickens, about 5 minutes.
- Stir in the garlic powder, mustard powder, salt, and pepper into the thickened mixture.
- Add the shredded cheddar cheese and grated Parmesan cheese to the pot and stir until completely melted and smooth.
- Combine the cooked macaroni with the cheese sauce, stirring well to coat.
- Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and transfer the macaroni and cheese mixture to a baking dish.
- For an extra crunchy top, feel free to sprinkle additional cheese on top. Bake for 15 minutes or until golden and bubbly.
