This is a fabulous recipe!! I made it for the first time last week for a Christmas party at work. It was the favorite and went quickly. I have had so many people ask me for this recipe...and of course I tell everyone that it is Paula's recipe and it is on-line...but I also made a copy to hand out. I am now going to make it for my family for Christmas since they only got a small amount at the party. Oh, I used extra sharp white cheese...so yummy! Thanks for making me look so good, Paula! From one ole' Southern gal to another!!

We are such macaroni and cheese eaters, and I make a pretty "mean" macaroni and cheese, but came across this recipe and thought I would give it a try. All I can say is "WOW"! Can't wait to see what the family thinks!

Paula, I am a huge fan and love the way you cook on your shows. I love mac and cheese and when I saw your recipe I was excited to check it out. I am going to try this recipe and know it will be awesome just like all of your other recipes. Thanks!

I was in charge of bringing Mac & Cheese to my family's Thanksgiving dinner and received this recipe from a friend. I knew how crowded the kitcken would be on Thanksgiving Day and figured a crock pot recipe would be the way to go so I wouldn't have to stuff myself in the kitchen with everyone else. Since I had never made this mac & cheese before, I did a trial run, and I'm so glad I did. I followed the recipe (although I did use the bagged shredded cheese because I'm too lazy to shred my own cheese - sorry Paula)and the end result looked like mac & cheese mixed with scrambled eggs (ew!). The taste was good, but the texture was down-right weird. On Thanksgiving Day, I decided to omit the eggs completely. I also decided not to melt the cheese and butter before putting it in the crock pot. So, I cooked the noodles, then mixed the noodles and all of the other ingredients (minus the eggs, of course) in the crock pot and cooked it on low for about 30-45 minutes, stirring occasionally. This time, the mac & cheese was AWESOME! There were 9 people at my family Thanksgiving and we ended up eating the entire pot of mac & cheese. I have a feeling I'll be in charge of mac & cheese for holiday dinners from now on and will definitely use this recipe!

I'm going to try some of your recipes for the first time. I will also need some recipes that are not expensive because i'm going through hard times at this time. Thank you, Cecilia

This recipe is fabulous...just LOVE IT...thank you so much Paula for sharaing...use a wisk when you are blending all the ingredients and by doing that the sauce will come out smooth.....awesome recipe...I will be making this over and over again...FIVE STARS plus for sure.

HELP! I cooked this version tonight but it was NOT creamy. What am I doing wrong? The texture was almost "curdled". Is it the type of cheese I am using? Tonight I used the Kraft bagged shredded sharp cheddar cheese and when I melted it with the butter it was a big glob. Is that what is supposed to happen? Will it be better if I used regular sour cream rather than light? Or if I shredded my own cheese? I LOVE mac n cheese but just can't seem to get the texture right on ANY recipe I use (even my own Mom's!)

Good Recipe!

Has anyone converted this recipe for the oven instead of a crock pot? I need to make enough for 14 families and I'm not sure my 2 crock pots will make that much. Thanks!

My husband is part of a motorcycle club, i have made this for many, many party's EVERYONE LOVES IT!!!! I usually make 3-6lbs and never ever have any left overs. I love to see new people try it and see their reaction and watch them go back for more. I have to admit I am known for making The Famous Mac n Cheese, this is how some of my friends introduce me as, and i love it. When i am asked where the recipe came from i do tell them its from you. I get requests to make it, and i can't say no because it is sooo good!! The only thing i add to it is bacon bits. It just makes it that much better. I just have to say THANK YOU!!!

OK Paula, I have 70 hungry high school football players I have to feed tonight. I needed a GOOD mac 'n cheese recipe to "carb them up" for tomorrow nights game! I trust you!!! There is nothing like watching a hungry man eat. I love feeding these boys every week, and hearing their "please" and "thank you"'s as they go through the line - then watching them all run back for seconds! It melts my heart. I have done this for 3 years now, and these boys are "my boys" every Thursday night. My son is a senior this year, and I'm really going to miss this next year...

By Kathy Davis on October 13, 2011
