How to Make Stouffer's Macaroni And Cheese
- In a small saucepan, whisk together 1/4 cup all-purpose flour and 2 cups skim milk until smooth.
- Cook over medium-low heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens slightly.
- Reduce heat to low. Stir in 2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese, 1/4 cup margarine, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
- Continue to stir frequently until the cheese is melted and the sauce is smooth and creamy (about 5-7 minutes).
- Simmer for 20-25 minutes, stirring every 2-3 minutes to prevent sticking and ensure a smooth consistency.
- While the sauce simmers, cook 1 pound elbow macaroni according to package directions until al dente. Drain well.
- Once the cheese sauce has simmered, gently stir in the cooked macaroni.
- Pour the macaroni and cheese mixture into a greased 9x13 inch baking dish or loaf pan.
- Cover and freeze for up to 3 months. (Optional: Proceed directly to step 11 if not freezing)
- When ready to bake (from frozen): Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until golden brown and bubbly. If baking from unfrozen, reduce baking time to 30-35 minutes.
