Ingredients
- 1/2 lb macaroni
- 3 tbsp butter
- 3 tablespoon flour
- 1-1/2 cups milk
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp dry mustard
- 1 dash Tabasco pepper sauce
- 1 to 1-1/2 cups shredded Cheddar cheese
- 1/4 cup buttered bread crumbs
Instructions
- Boil the macaroni in salted water till just tender. Drain well.
- Prepare a white sauce - melt the butter in a heavy saucepan, blend with the flour, and cook several minutes over medium heat. Heat the milk to the boiling point, stir into the flour-butter mixture, and continue stirring till it thickens. Add the seasonings and simmer 4 to 5 minutes.
- Butter a 2 or 2-1/2 quart baking dish or casserole. In it arrange alternate layers of macaroni, sauce, and cheese, ending with cheese. Cover the top with buttered crumbs. Bake at 350°F 25 minutes, or until the top is nicely browned and the sauce is bubbly. Serve at once.
