1
Cook the Macaroni
In a large pot of salted boiling water, cook the elbow macaroni until al dente according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.
2
Make the Cheese Sauce
In the same pot, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the flour and whisk constantly for about 1 minute until it turns golden brown. Gradually whisk in the milk, stirring continuously until the mixture thickens and begins to bubble.
3
Add the Cheese
Remove the pot from heat and stir in the shredded cheddar cheese until melted and smooth. Season with salt and black pepper.
4
Combine Pasta and Sauce
Add the cooked macaroni to the cheese sauce and stir until well combined.
5
Serve
Spoon the mac & cheese into bowls and top with crumbled bacon and crispy fried onions. Serve immediately.
