My Southern family favorite! The KEY is to taste each stage (except the egg stage) to ensure PERFECTLY seasoned macaroni.
Ingredients:
1 (14 1/2 ounce) box elbow macaroni
3 -4 tablespoons butter
2 eggs
1 tablespoon salt (to taste)
2 teaspoons pepper (to taste)
2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
4 cups shredded cheddar cheese
Directions:
1. Cook macaroni according to directions on box, DO NOT OVER COOK!
2. Drain pasta in strainer.
3. In a deep and large casserole pan place macaroni.
4. Add butter, taste, add salt, taste, add pepper and taste again. Make adjustments at each stage if necessary.
5. Minus 1 cup of cheddar cheese, add all remaining 5 cups.
6. In a separate bowl mix eggs well.
7. Stir in eggs with a large wooden spoon.
8. Cover all with foil tightly.
9. Cook for 45 minutes at 350°F.
10. Uncover after 45 minutes and add last cup of cheese over the top. Bake uncovered for another 15-30 minutes until desired brownness is achieved.
