After getting off to a really late start with making supper, but still having the "hankerin" for mac and cheese, I was searching online thinking to myself, There has GOT to be a quickie recipe for mac and cheese... and there is! After making mac and cheese this quickly and easily... why would anyone want to make it any other way! I, personally, will never make it any other way again! This was incredible! The only thing I had to do was add a little bit more milk and butter at the end, but this one is definitely a KEEPER!

I really like the ratios used in this recipe, except for the flour. I use just a touch less and cook this on the stove instead of the microwave. Super creamy and cheesy, yum! I tried this recipe a second time using pepper jack (instead of cheddar) and adding corn, black beans, chopped grilled chicken, jalapenos and cilantro... to die for! Thanks : )

My 12 month old loved this but alas I found it a little too 'floury' in taste. Seemed like I was making a bechamel sauce for lasagne rather than mac and cheese. Next time I will use less flour.

i wish my kids liked this as much as i do! i've always wanted a simple and quick mac & cheese like they serve at our fish fry's. this is IT! i've made this for a quick filler when family drops by and many of them have asked for the recipe. you can experiment with hot sauce or cayenne pepper or even chili powder. or it's just great by itself. great recipe. thanks.

This was very easy and quick but it didn't taste as good as some others. This is good in a pinch but not a family favorite for us.

This recipe calls for to much flour. I only put 2tbs of flour in it. I also added some nutmeg for flavor. Next time I'm also going to put worchestire for taste. Great Recipie

Great recipe! No need to open that mac'n'cheese box anymore. The first time around, I scaled it down to 2 servings but forgot to scale down the microwave time. Made this recipe a few more times and figured that for 2 servings, 1+1 minute,stiring in between, gets the sauce smooth and creamy. My 3 year old helps me make this dish and totally enjoys the dish.

7:00 pm, no idea what to make for dinner...and we're hungry for something fast & cheesy. This recipe was excellent! I also added garlic and onion powder and another 1/2 cup of cheese. Also, it didn't need another full 5 minutes of micro time, so I only cooked it another 2 min. A small whisk worked perfectly for keeping the mixture creamy. We'll definitely do this one again!

This is an awesome recipe, exactly what I was hoping for. I cooked it stovetop to keep it smooth and added some paprika and parm to the cheese sauce. Really fabulous.

I used Velveeta for the cheese and followed the rest of the recipe to the T.... but I ended up with mac n cheese soup, so I'm cooking another cup of mac to add to it, should be great then! Thanks you for the recipe!!

Super easy and as good as that famous frozen brand. Great if you have leftover macaroni and a good summer recipe so you don't heat up the house.

Good for mac & cheese fix. My microwave heats fast & therefore sauce thick, but added abit if milk to thin. I added worchestire to taste, but a great quick recipe.

Great for a Mac and Cheese fix. And soooo fast. The recipe as is, is a little bland. I used American Cheese, garlic power, worcestershire sauce and mustard powder. It was a big hit with my boyfriend as a quick and easy lunch. I also served this with an organic turkey hot dog octopus. Delish!

Fantastic late night crave dish. Reduced flour to 2 tbsp., added dehydrated onion and substituted Velveeta cheese. I love mac & cheese, and this was great, easy and above all, fast.
