Ingredients:

Serving

2 lbs elbow macaroni
12 eggs
1 cup cubed velveeta cheese
1 cup butter, melted
6 cups half-and-half
4 cups grated sharp cheddar cheese
2 cups grated extra sharp white cheddar cheese
1 1/2 cups grated mozzarella cheese
1 cup grated asiago cheese
1 cup grated gruyere cheese
1 cup grated monterey jack cheese
1 cup grated muenster cheese
1/8 tsp salt

Directions:

Preheat the oven to 325ºF.
Bring a large saucepan of salted water to a boil. Add the macaroni and cook until slightly al dente, about 10 minutes.
Drain and set aside to keep warm.
Whisk the eggs in a large bowl until frothy.
Combine the eggs with the Velveeta, butter, and 2 cups of the half-and-half in a large bowl.
Add the warm macaroni, tossing until the cheese has melted and the mixture is smooth.
Add the remaining half-and-half, 3 cups of the sharp yellow cheddar (reserve 1 cup), the remaining grated cheeses, and salt and pepper.
Toss until completely combined.
Pour the mixture into a 9 x 13 casserole or baking dish and bake for 30 minutes.
