Macaroni and Cheese

Ingredients:

4 cups favorite shaped pasta, uncooked (I use cellentani)

3 tbsp butter

3 tbsp all-purpose flour

3 cups whole milk

1/2 cup (4 oz.) Velvetta cheese, cut into small chunks

3 1/2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese

Salt and pepper, to taste

Directions:

Preheat oven to 400°.  Cook pasta according to package directions; drain.  Meanwhile, melt butter in a large sauce pot; whisk in flour.  Continue whisking until mixture has fully incorporated and slightly brown; pour in milk.  Continue whisking until the sauce has thickened slightly then add Velvetta cheese. Stir until cheese has melted into sauce; add shredded cheddar in batches until it has all been used.  Season sauce with salt and pepper to taste, then stir in drained pasta.  Pour mixture into a large greased baking dish and bake for 25 – 30, or until top is lightly browned and bubbly.
