Instructions
Cube Velveeta (8 ounces) shred sharp cheddar cheese (4 ounces) and shred Monterey Jack cheese (4 ounces)
Bring a pot of water to a boil and add salt (2 tsp). Your Mac and Cheese will be affected and under seasoned if you don’t salt the water before cooking the pasta. Add the elbow macaroni (2 cups) to the boiling water and cook according to the package direction for al dente pasta. About 6 minutes. (al dente means firm and slightly chewy)
While the water is coming to a boil, beat together the eggs (2 large), egg yolk (1) and the evaporated milk (12 ounces).
Drain the macaroni noodles. Put the macaroni back into the pot and on low heat add butter (2 tbsp). Add in the Velveeta (8 ounces) sharp cheddar (4 ounces) and the Monterey Jack (4 ounces). Add salt (to taste) and white pepper (to taste)and stir to melt the cheese.
Pour the milk sauce over the macaroni. Stir gently until all the macaroni is completely covered in cheese sauce. Keep stirring over medium low heat until the temperature of the mac and cheese reaches at least 165 degrees.
Remove from the heat and serve immediately. Garnish the Wisconsin Mac and Cheese with shredded cheddar.
