How to Make Full Cool Macaroni And Cheese
- Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add 1/2 cup chopped yellow onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
- Whisk in 1/4 cup all-purpose flour and cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly.
- Gradually whisk in 3 cups warm milk until smooth. Bring to a simmer, stirring frequently, until the sauce has thickened, about 5 minutes.
- Meanwhile, cook 1 pound elbow macaroni in a large pot of boiling salted water according to package directions until al dente. Drain well.
- Add the cooked pasta to the cheese sauce.
- Stir in 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese, 1 cup shredded Gruyere cheese (or substitute with more cheddar), 1/2 teaspoon paprika, a pinch of cayenne pepper (optional), and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Stir until the cheese is melted and the sauce is smooth and creamy.
