Macaroni & Cheese


Ingredients:
1 box (16 oz) noodles (I used rigatoni because it looks more fun than elbow macaroni :)
2 Tbsp butter
1 can (12 oz) evaporated milk
12 oz grated cheddar cheese (I used sharp cheddar, and it gave it a great bite)
2 eggs, beaten
2 teaspoons mustard (the original calls for dry mustard powder, but I used yellow mustard- shhh...)
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
Salt and Pepper (whoops. left that out.)

Directions:

1. Boil pasta according to package directions, but reduce the time by 1 minute. Drain and pour back into pot.
2. Over medium heat, add butter and stir until melted
3. Mix the egg, milk, and spices and pour over the pasta. Stir until it begins to thicken, about 5 minutes.
(I forgot the mixing part and just poured it all in; either way)
4. Remove the pan from heat and add cheese in four installments, making sure the first is melted completely before adding the next. (You may have to turn the heat back on to completely melt the cheese)
Serve immediately, it gets hard when cold. Serves 8-10 side dish servings.

Thanks to Evil Shenanigans for the recipe, doubled.
