Rich and cheesy but not too dry. My family loves this and we have it for all our big meals. Ingredients:
cooking spray |
1 (16 ounce) package elbow macaroni |
2 (8 ounce) packages mild cheddar cheese, shredded, divided |
1 (8 ounce) package sharp cheddar cheese, shredded |
3/4 cup sour cream |
3/4 cup cottage cheese |
1 egg |
salt and ground black pepper to taste |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
2. Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook elbow macaroni in the boiling water, stirring occasionally, until cooked through but firm to the bite, 8 minutes; drain.
3. Reserve 1/2 cup shredded mild Cheddar cheese for later use
4. Mix mild Cheddar cheese, sharp Cheddar cheese, sour cream, cottage cheese, and egg together in a bowl; season with salt and pepper. Stir cooked macaroni into cheese mixture. Pour macaroni mixture evenly into the prepared baking dish; sprinkle with the reserved 1/2 cup Cheddar cheese.
