  1. 1

    Cook the Pasta

    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.

    Prepare the Cheese Sauce

    In the same pot, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the cream cheese and stir until melted and smooth. Gradually add the buffalo sauce, stirring to combine.

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Transfer the mac and cheese mixture to a baking dish. Top with the remaining cheddar cheese and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until bubbly and golden on top.
