2 cups uncooked elbow macaroni
2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons Gold Medal™ all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon grated or very finely chopped onion
2 cups milk
2 cups shredded Butterkase cheese (8 oz)
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro or Italian (flat-leaf) parsley
Instructions
Step 1
Cook and drain macaroni as directed on package.
Step 2
In 10-inch skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Using whisk, stir in flour, salt and onion. Cook 2 to 3 minutes, or until mixture smells nutty and is lightly golden, stirring constantly with whisk.
Step 3
Add milk. Continue to beat with whisk, scraping bottom of skillet until mixture heats to boiling. Mixture will thicken. Remove from heat; add cheese and cilantro. Stir with whisk until smooth. Stir in drained macaroni.
Step 4
Serve with additional cilantro if desired.
Recipe Tips
After cooking but before adding cheese, if sauce is lumpy, either strain or add to a blender and turn on high until smooth before adding cheese.
For a crunchy top crust, spread macaroni and cheese in a baking dish, and place under the broiler for a few minutes, watching carefully, until golden brown.
