Pasta Preparation

  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.

Cheese Sauce

  1. 2

    Make the Cheese Sauce

    In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Whisk in the flour and cook for about 1 minute, stirring constantly. Gradually whisk in the milk until smooth and thickened, about 2-3 minutes.

  2. 3

    Add Cheese

    Lower the heat and stir in the cheddar cheese and cream cheese until melted and creamy. Add hot sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper, adjusting seasoning to taste.

Combine and Bake

  1. 4

    Combine Pasta and Sauce

    In a large bowl, combine the cooked elbow macaroni with the cheese sauce, mixing until the pasta is fully coated.

  2. 5

    Prepare for Baking

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

  3. 6

    Add Toppings

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

  4. 7

    Bake

    Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and crispy.
