Como fazer Great Grammy's Macaroni Cheese

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 3-quart square Corningware casserole dish (or similar sized baking dish).
Cook macaroni according to package directions until al dente. Drain well and set aside.
Melt butter in a double boiler over medium-low heat. (Alternatively, use a heavy-bottomed saucepan over very low heat, stirring constantly.)
Whisk in salt and ground mustard. Gradually whisk in flour until smooth.
Slowly whisk in milk until smooth.
Continue to whisk constantly over low heat until the sauce thickens and is smooth and creamy (about 5-7 minutes).
Remove from heat and stir in shredded cheddar cheese until completely melted and smooth.
Place half of the cooked macaroni in the prepared casserole dish.
Pour about 1/3 of the cheese sauce over the macaroni and stir gently to combine.
Layer the American cheese slices evenly over the macaroni and cheese.
Add the remaining macaroni and cheese sauce. Stir gently to combine.
Sprinkle the top evenly with Parmesan cheese and freshly ground black pepper.
Bake for 60-75 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and bubbly. Let stand for 10 minutes before serving.
