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. Stir in the flour and cook for 1-2 minutes until bubbly. Gradually whisk in the milk, ensuring there are no lumps. Continue to stir until the sauce thickens, about 5-7 minutes.

3. Add Cheese and Seasonings

Remove the pot from heat and stir in the shredded cheddar cheese until melted. Add salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Mix well.

4. Combine and Serve

Add the drained macaroni to the cheese sauce and stir until well coated. Serve immediately.
