I used extra sharp cheddar, and it was great!

Good premise. I made it exactly as written, and found it wanting a bit in the flavor department. The addition of 3 Tb Parmesan and 1 Tb sour cream helped make for a cheesier flavor. Also a judicious sprinkling of salt is in order. Go easy, then taste as cheese has a lot of sodium in it to begin with and it's easy to go overboard fast. After those additions the flavor went from bland to sublime. Note that as this dish cools or if there are any leftovers, you will want to add a Tb or two of milk before reheating and stir to blend well (more may be needed,) as the cheese will cause the sauce to tighten up.

i dont know what went wrong but this was an awful dish! it was very liquidy and the milk was overpowering.i couldnt finish it at all.i will try again because i am sure i did something wrong but it was not what i had expected!

this was pretty good, my kids that are extremly picky eaters ate this up asking for more. I didn't have any velveta so i shredded 5 slices of american cheese. It was very good and didnt taste anything like kfc mac n cheese thank god!

Followed the recipe and did not like the consistency.

HELPFUL TIPS: If you like Velveeta from the box at the store then it may be better to just buy that b/c that's what you're getting here (exactly). I told my husband what this was called (Restaurant Style Mac & Cheese), and he said "Whose restaurant?" lol If you're looking for restaurant style, you may want to consider something else. If you're in college and love your velveeta, this is it except a load more of excess cheese. I love cheese... heck, it could be my middle name, but even with 2C of macaroni... it was too much.

This was really salty to me but my family ate it up. It is exactly like KFC mac and cheese.

This recipe is really rich (in my opinion). I used milk instead of cream and I added extra milk to see if I could thin the sauce out some and to reduce the richness. I would say this is a good base recipe but might need to be played around with.

This mac and cheese was rich and creamy. I love the Gourmet Mac and Cheese at Red Robin and decided to try and make it at home. I doubled this recipe and used it as the base mac and cheese then topped it with goat cheese, bacon, grilled chicken breast and crushed croutons. It was pretty close to the restaurant version. Thanks for the recipe.

Very good, the family didn't turn their noses up at this as they do with most Mac and Cheese recipes. I made this according to the recipe except that I doubled the cream.

This was fast and tasted good. I did make some changes to use what I had on hand. I used 4 slices american cheese in place of velveeta. I used 1 full cup of sharp cheddar cheese. I used 1/4 cup milk in place of the cream. And about 2 1/2 cups pasta. This was great, just as easy to make as box mac and cheese. More like two servings... definately not 4 unless this is a side dish.

This is very good. We like out Mac and Cheese creamier so I added more cream than the recipe called for. Family loved it.

This is definitely a rich dish! I have to agree with the other reviewers that it tastes very similar to Boston Market's mac-n-n-cheese. My husband LOVED this, but I found the sauce to be too thick and sticky. Next time I'll use milk instead of heavy cream.

Wonderfully cheesy! Just like you'd get at BostonMarket or something like that... very sticky!!!

This mac and cheese had such a processed taste to it, and there was just too much cheese. If I make this again, I will increase the pasta to 2 cups uncooked and I will reverse the ratio of cheddar to processed cheese. The positive was that it was very quick and easy to prepare! I guess I just don't like the taste of processed cheese.

I am giving this a 5 star because my kids loved it and it was easy....no baking. This is a very good and basic recipe. I have tasted 5 cheese mac that is better. If it is easy and the kids love it what more could I want? :)

This is a very rich macaroni and cheese! I wish I would have used a nice sharp cheddar in it to offset the flavor of the velveeta, but all I had was a mild shredded cheddar. I don't think I'll make this too frequently, it's so rich it's something you can only eat once in a while, but very tasty.

Ok, so I LOVED this.... This is exctly how I like my mac n cheese, but my boyfriend didn't care for it much. But who can really count his judgement of it because he ONLY likes Kraft Macaroni & Cheese with the powder mix... Thank for the recipe, will just have to make again for only myself!!

This was good and easy to make, my 3 yr old loved it! I used milk and it turned out fine.
