1
Boil Water
In a large pot, bring 4 cups of water to a rolling boil over high heat.
2
Add Pasta
Once the water is boiling, add 2 cups of macaroni pasta and 1 teaspoon of salt. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
3
Cook Pasta
Cook the macaroni for about 7-8 minutes, or until al dente. Drain the pasta in a colander and set aside.

4
Combine Ingredients
In the same pot over low heat, melt 2 tablespoons of butter. Once melted, add 1 cup of milk and the cheese packet from the Kraft Macaroni & Cheese box.
5
Mix Sauce
Stir the mixture continuously until the cheese is fully melted and the sauce is smooth.

6
Mix Pasta and Sauce
Add the drained macaroni back into the pot with the cheese sauce. Stir well to ensure that all the pasta is coated in the cheese mixture.

7
Prepare Hot Dog
If using, slice the hot dog into bite-sized pieces.
8
Add Hot Dog
Stir the sliced hot dog into the mac and cheese, mixing thoroughly to combine.
