Ingredients

8 Ounces of Elbow Macaroni

3 Tablespoons Butter

2 Tablespoons Unbleached Flour

2 Cups Milk

½ Teaspoon Salt

½ Teaspoon Ground Black Pepper

8 Ounces Shredded Sharp Cheddar Cheese

Preparation

 Prepare pasta according to package directions. Keep warm.  Melt butter in a Dutch oven over low to medium heat, stir in flour until smooth.  Cook and stir constantly for approximately 2 minutes.  Gradually stir in milk and continue to cook and stir constantly.  Do this for approximately five minutes or until thickened.  Remove from heat and stir in salt, black pepper and 1 cup of the shredded cheese and cooked pasta.
