Method

Cooking Pasta

  1. 1

    Boil the Pasta

    In a large pot, bring water to a boil. Add salt and macaroni pasta. Cook according to package instructions, usually about 8-10 minutes, until al dente. Drain and set aside.

Making Cheese Sauce

  1. 2

    Prepare the Sauce

    In a large saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Once melted, whisk in the flour and cook for about 1 minute until bubbly. Gradually add the milk, whisking continuously until the mixture thickens, about 5-7 minutes.

  2. 3

    Add the Cheeses

    Reduce heat to low and add cheddar cheese and cream cheese to the thickened milk mixture. Stir until fully melted and combined.

  3. 4

    Season the Sauce

    Stir in garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, and hot sauce. Mix well and remove from heat.

Combining Ingredients

  1. 5

    Combine Pasta and Sauce

    In the pot with the drained macaroni, pour the cheese sauce and stir until all pasta is well coated.

Baking

  1. 6

    Prepare for Baking

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Transfer the macaroni and cheese mixture to a greased baking dish.

  2. 7

    Add Toppings

    Sprinkle the crumbled bacon, sliced green onions, bread crumbs, and grated Parmesan cheese evenly over the top.

  3. 8

    Bake

    Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until the top is golden and bubbly.
