    How to Make Stove Top Mac and Cheese

    This stovetop mac and cheese is the creamiest version! The secret to this recipe is that the pasta is boiled in milk (which means only one pot for easy clean up). It’s as easy as 1,2,3!

    1. Combine milk, garlic powder, butter, and water in a saucepan and bring to a boil.
    2. Add in the macaroni noodles and reduce the heat to low (adding liquid as needed). Cook until the noodles are tender, about 20 minutes.
    3. Once the pasta is fully cooked, add the rest of the ingredients and stir until melted.

    The final result is a smooth and hearty easy family entrée that everyone will love and want seconds of!

    Troubleshooting

    This recipe is really easy to make but here are a few tips to make sure it comes out creamy.

    When the macaroni is done cooking in the milk, you do not want it dry. You may need to add more milk/water to the pot while it is cooking. The macaroni noodles should be as moist as the photo on the top right below BEFORE you add in the cheese. Once you add the cheese, remove it from the stove and stir until the cheese has melted.

    Keep in mind, pre-shredded cheese often has additives to keep it from clumping. These additives can cause it to be grainy instead of creamy.

    Got Leftovers?

    Can You Freeze Mac and Cheese? The best creamy mac and cheese recipes are served just as they’re made, including this one. This recipe doesn’t freeze well.
