Made this to go over macaroni. Flavor was decent but the recipe itself needs some tweaking. Like several others have said, the milk needs to be heated to boiling for the cornstarch to do it's thing. I also agree with several others that it needs more cheese and/or less milk.

Terrible...the sauce curdled and I was very careful to maintain a low flame and to stir very slowly.

my son and I tried this...we had a craving for mac n cheese =). I had to use evap milk+ H2O, because I was out of milk. I didn't measure the cheese, but I did use a variety mix (sharp ched, parm, colby, "mexican blend")..the texture wasnt velvety smooth..but it worked. we adjusted the flavor by adding seasonings and different cheeses. this is a good basic recipe to experiment with..worked for us.

This recipe was really good over veggies but NOT over tortilla chips. I added all ingredients together then *slowly* melted cheese, then I increased heat just a bit till corn starch had a chance to thicken. I did use about 1/2 cup more cheese just because I used skim milk. And I did add about 1/2 teaspoon of paprika and instead of garlic salt used garlic powder.

No stars for this one; it curdled, looked bad and didn't have much "cheese" flavor although I used twice the cheese called for:(

I made this sauce for dinner last night and was very pleased. It's the first time I've made a cheese sauce before and I was glad it came out. it was very tasty. I did not bother to add the food dye since it looked fine without it.

Super easy and delicious! Food coloring unnecessary though. I also added a little cayenne for some spiciness.

A problematic recipe. Didn't come together well. Needs a lot more cheese, at least a cup more, if that amount of milk is going to be used. Also, I think the procedure is a little backwards; it would probably work better if the milk and cornstarch were heated together first to make a kind of white sauce, and then the cheese were added.
