Skip to content Show The Great Mac & Cheese debate has worked my dang nerves! “I like it dry!” “Creamy!” “American cheese has to be in it!” “No processed cheese!!” If y’all don’t sit down somewhere! Goodness! It’s MACARONI AND CHEESE! I understand that everyone has their
individual tastes. But, you’ll never know what you like if you only try it one way. I make this stuff all kinds of different ways, using all kinds of different cheeses! However, I tried my BEST to come up with a Baked Mac and Cheese recipe that would meet in the middle. And, I really believe this recipe will please even the pickiest of eaters. I PRAY! As stated above, everyone has their own preference of cheeses to use. And you are free to use whatever floats your cheesy boat.
That line was cheesy, Coop. Whatever. My only pet peeve with cheese is using that pre-packaged cheese! No shade, but SHADE! Go to the deli, buy a small block of cheese, and shred that bad boy yourself. I know it’s time consuming. But, it makes a huge difference in the flavor and quality of your mac and
cheese! Now, let’s talk baking time. If you prefer a drier, browner mac and cheese, then jack the heat up to 400 degrees F. Or you can just leave it in the oven for a longer time than I did. My recipe will yield a pan of mac and cheese that’s stiff and slightly browned on the top with a creamy, bubbly center. So, just adjust it to your preference, babe! That’s enough chit chat. The reason you’re really here is below. Happy Cooking! B. Coop Baked Mac and Cheese 2017-11-17 14:05:26 Serves 10

Can I use evaporated milk instead of milk in mac and cheese?Regular macaroni and cheese is typically made with fresh milk. So what can you substitute for milk in mac and cheese? Evaporated milk is the answer.
Can you use evaporated milk instead of heavy cream for mac and cheese?Evaporated milk has more protein than regular milk, but less fat than heavy cream, which gives this easy baked macaroni and cheese a thick, creamy filling without too much greasiness.
Is it better to use cream or milk for mac and cheese?Heavy whipping cream (or half and half) is the perfect substitute for milk in mac and cheese. This is actually a great option! The thicker consistency will produce a dreamy, creamy sauce that everyone will love. The flavor is bolder and richer, too, and you may enjoy it more than the original.
Do you put evaporated milk in baked mac and cheese?In a medium bowl, whisk together evaporated milk, skim milk, and eggs.
