Steps
Tap a step to mark it done.
- Preheat oven to 350 F
- Mix the cheese minus the parmesan in a bowl and set to the side.
- Bring a pot of water to a boil and boil the macaroni for 2 minutes less than instructed on the package. It should be very al dente.
- Strain the pasta and add to a large bowl with the evaporated milk and about ¼ (8 oz) of the cheese mixture.
- Mix until the milk and cheese are well incorporated
- Add about half (16 oz) of the cheese and mix to combine.
- Let the macaroni cool for a minute or two or until warm but not too hot to the touch (we don’t want the eggs to scramble).
- Add the eggs, garlic powder, paprika, salt and pepper and mix.
- Add the macaroni mixture to a baking dish and top with the rest of the cheese (8 oz) mixture as well as the parmesan.
- Bake for 30-45 minutes or until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.
