I agree with the other comments that the onion powder left a very strong flavor and that the béchamel was very rich; I would omit the onion and double the pasta if I were to make it again but you did warn us this recipe was rich (it also totally doesn’t help that I only had heavy cream instead of milk ) My first time both making mac and cheese from scratch and shredding cheese using my food processor! Very fun. Will never shred a block of cheese by hand again.

This is my go-to mac and cheese recipe. I never change anything and it always turns out great.

Easy, cheap, and tasty! I make mine with equal parts gouda and mild cheddar. Be careful with the onion powder, because it can get overwhelming (or replace it with garlic powder, which I keep doing because I ran out of onion powder and never remembered to get more).

Step 1: mess up so horribly because you didn’t read the recipe and now you have this greasy seasoned cheese blob
Step 2: read the recipe and pray

It turned out fine i just kept adding milk and cheddar to the roux until it looked edible haha

Absolutely no flavor. Followed the recipe to a T and it looked great but tasted bad. The onion powder took over and these cheese wasn’t strong enough.

My mom has been wanting homemade macaroni and cheese so this was the first time I made it and it turned out good and she liked it and she is a picky eater I guess I’ll be making this again for her

Works in a pinch, barely.

A classic! If your sauce is too runny, you aren’t simmering it long enough. It takes a few minutes, but Bechamel sauce is like magic, you’ll know when it’s ready.

I made mine with lots of garlic powder, some mustard powder, and Swiss and parmeasean cheese.

After reviewing the comments, I decided to make this as written with the exception of halving the milk and I’m very happy I did! This turned out perfect and has a wonderful flavor, but I can only imagine how soupy it would’ve been with the full amount of milk that the recipe called for!

Yummy!! I decreased the onion powder and hot sauce and added dry mustard and cracked pepper. Thank you for the recipe. :)
