Mac n Cheese

My grandma taught me to make something like this when I was about 16. She has always been an amazing cook. I was so excited to find the recipe that I had to make it right away. I only made half of it because it's not fat free, and I really didn't want to be eating it all week.


4 Tbsp. butter, cut in pieces
1/2 lb. uncooked macaroni
3 eggs, lightly beaten
1 c. milk
½ c. sour cream
½ tsp. salt
½ tsp. pepper
½ tsp. dry mustard powder
4 c. grated cheddar


Preheat oven to 350. butter a 2 quart flameproof baking dish. In a large pot of boiling water, cook macaroni. Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, mix together the butter, eggs, milk, sour cream, salt, pepper and mustard. Drain macaroni, transfer to a large bowl and stir in 2 c. cheese. Add egg and milk mixture and stir to combine. Pour into the baking dish and bake for 30 minutes, or until set. Top with remaining 2 c. cheese and put the baking dish under the broiler until bubbly and golden brown.
