BETTER BOXED MAC & CHEESE!! TASTES HOMEMADE!!
Today, a little something different! I recently realized that I make mac and cheese from a box different from a lot of people. So I thought this may be a great subject for a video. We all use it. You know you do! If you say you don't I wouldn't believe you. It's as comforting as a hug from your mom. Boxed mac and cheese is a delicious memory from your childhood, but there is a better way to make it that will taste like it was made from scratch! Today I am sharing a couple tips and tricks for making boxed mac and cheese utterly over the top amazing!
I have been doing this for a long time! My mom never did it this way, opting to toss everything in the pot and stir with a wooden spoon. This always left large powdery clumps of "cheese" powder littered throughout and never got the whole pot tasting quite cheesy enough. So as I got older I realized that if I wanted a cheese sauce I had better actually make the sauce first then add the cooked macaroni.
This trick will work with any boxed mac and cheese that uses a powdered cheese packet. Not the ones with the foil cheese sauce packet where you squeeze the cheese into the hot macaroni. This one is basic. Boil your macaroni as directed or to your desired consistency. While the macaroni is draining, put the saucepan back on the heat and melt the required amount of butter and add the required amount of milk. So far we are doing everything the box tells us. Just in a different order. Now add the cheese sauce powder and whisk until blended, smooth and the mixture begins to thicken.
Now is where we go wild! Add 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese and whisk in until smooth and then add the magic ingredient. 1/4 cup of sour cream whisked in will make this sauce smooth, silky and taste like you made it from scratch. The addition of both the extra cheese and the sour cream bulks up the fat content in the sauce giving it an amazing texture and flavor. This is just not going to happen if you only use the powder packet.
Now add in your cooked macaroni and stir well to combine. In the end you will have smooth, silky macaroni and cheese that will have your family singing your praises. Serve this up to friends and family and I bet they will be asking for the recipe!
I hope you give this method of making better boxed macaroni and cheese a try and I hope you love it!
Happy Eating!
