Time 1h35m

Yield 8-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/2 cup salted butter
4 blocks sharp cheddar cheese (8 ounces each)
1 egg
1 teaspoon olive oil
1 pinch kosher salt
1 lb elbow macaroni
1 (14 1/2 ounce) can cream of mushroom soup
0.5 (14 1/2 ounce) can evaporated milk, such as Carnation
5 tablespoons sour cream
8 ounces extra-sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
1 cup crumbled butter flavored cracker, such as Ritz

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Bring a large pot of water to a boil.
  • Melt the butter in a cast-iron skillet set over low heat¿it is very important that this step be on low heat! Add the cubed cheddar and melt until creamy, stirring constantly. Stir in the egg, taking care not to let it scramble.
  • While the cheese is melting, add the olive oil and salt to the pot of boiling water. Add the pasta; cook for 10 minutes. Strain and return the pasta to the pot.
  • Add the melted cheese and egg mixture to the cooked pasta, along with the cream of mushroom soup, the evaporated milk and the sour cream; stir, then add half of the cracker crumbs. Mix together until the pasta is well coated and the sauce comes together.
  • Add half of the pasta mixture to a 9-by-13-inch baking dish and top with half of the shredded cheddar. Add the remaining half of the pasta, followed by the remaining shredded cheddar. Sprinkle the remaining cracker crumbs over the top. Bake for 40 minutes.
