Macaroni & Cheese

when i make mac & cheese it's usually a mismatch of whatever cheese & pasta i can find- but to give you a general idea:

1/2 box pasta (wheels are fun!)
1 cup cream (milk)
1-1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese or cheese slices
1 sleeve of crushed Ritz- melted butter (about 4-5 tblsp)
2 tblsp butter
2 tblsp flour
salt, pepper & seasoning to taste

pre-heat oven to 375- boil pasta & drain.
useing the same pot- melt butter & whisk in the flour until the mixture bubbles- slowely pour in the cream and stir until mix thickens. add the cheese & sir until melted. Add the pasta to the pan & mx together.

pour the pasta into a butterd baking dish & layer with more cheese if desired.
crush the ritz & mix with the butter- sprinkle over the top and bake for about 20-30 min.

Enjoy!
