Ingredients
- 8 ounces elbow macaroni uncooked
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 1/2 cups whole milk
- 1/4 cup sour cream
- 2 cups cheddar cheese shredded
- salt and pepper (to taste)
Instructions
- Cook elbow macaroni according to package instructions. Drain, and set aside.
- Mix flour, salt, and garlic powder together in a small bowl. Set aside.
- In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Add flour mixture and whisk to combine. Cook for 1 minute until mixture is slightly brown.
- Add 1 cup milk and whisk until the mixture is smooth.
- Add sour cream and whisk until smooth.
- Cook until the mixture is thickened (about 3-5 minutes). Do not let it boil.
- Once mixture is thick, reduce heat to low and add cheese. Whisk until cheese is melted and smooth. Add salt and pepper (to taste) if desired.
- Pour cooked pasta to the pot of cheese sauce and stir until the sauce covers the noodles. Let cool for 3-5 minutes before serving.
Notes
- To refrigerate. Stovetop mac and cheese will last in the fridge for 3 to 4 days. Keep it covered in an airtight container.
- To reheat. Leftovers can be reheated on the stovetop or in the microwave. Note that you may want to add a splash of water to thin the sauce or prevent it from drying out when reheating.
