Cooking Instructions
1. Cook the Macaroni
In a large pot, bring salted water to a boil. Add the elbow macaroni and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
2. Make the Cheese Sauce
In the same pot, melt the butter over medium heat. Once melted, whisk in the flour and cook for about 1 minute, stirring constantly.

5. Combine Macaroni and Cheese Sauce
Add the drained macaroni to the cheese sauce and stir until well combined. Serve immediately.
