Categories     side-dish

Time 1h5m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

One 16-ounce box cavatappi pasta (I like De Cecco)
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 1/2 cups heavy cream, warmed
1 cup evaporated milk
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
Fine sea salt and freshly cracked black pepper
3 large egg yolks
1 pound extra-sharp Vermont Cheddar, shredded
8 ounces processed American cheese, such as Velveeta, diced into 1/2-inch cubes
One 8-ounce bag ridged potato chips, lightly crushed

Steps:

  • Cook the pasta per the manufacturer's al dente specifications, then rinse with cold water in a colander. Set aside. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • In a 4-quart Dutch oven, melt the butter over low heat, then add the flour, stirring until thickened. Add the cream, evaporated milk, cayenne pepper and some salt and pepper, then whisk until thickened to the point that the sauce coats the back of a wooden spoon, about 5 minutes. Turn off the heat.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the yolks and a tablespoon or two of the white sauce to temper the yolks, stirring constantly. Add the tempered yolks back to the white sauce, whisking, then add the Cheddar, followed by the American cheese, stirring until the cheese has melted completely. (If the cheese is not melting completely, return the saucepan to the stovetop over low heat and stir just until the cheese melts.) Gently stir in the pasta until coated. (The mac and cheese can be served at this point if desired, for a stovetop version.)
  • Turn the mixture out into a 9-by-13-inch baking dish. Crumble the chips on top of the mac and cheese and bake until golden brown and bubbling, 20 to 30 minutes. (If traveling with the mac and cheese, put a lid on it and bake on-site, preferably over a campfire!)

Yummy mac and cheese that is so ooey and gooey. My kids go wild over this dish. It is great with anything: chicken, beef, or pork. Use any type of cheese you like; I use whatever I have in the fridge.

OOEY GOOEY GRILLED CHEESE



Ooey Gooey Grilled Cheese image

Just thinking about this killer grilled cheese makes my stomach growl! I came up with this idea after eating something similar at a soup and salad bar. Ideally this is made as a panini but works just as well with plain old white bread. Another good idea is to make this in a George Foreman grill.
