This recipe for classic baked macaroni and cheese is one of the most popular on Kitchen Treaty. It’s super creamy – not dry like some homemade mac and cheese can get.

It’s rich, ooey, gooey, and, yeah – in my humble opinion – the best macaroni and cheese recipe ever. Seriously. This mac and cheese recipe will knock your socks off. Then go put ’em back on and run a marathon, quick!

I say it’s the best macaroni and cheese recipe ever not because I have tried every single mac and cheese recipe in the world (though I have tried many) (and wouldn’t it be an incredibly noble cause to try every single one?!). It’s because whenever I take a glorious melty bite, I simply cannot imagine a better classic mac and cheese. I can also say it’s the best macaroni and cheese recipe ever because this one is not really even my recipe. I tweaked it a tiny bit – basically made it even more fattening – but otherwise, it’s someone else’s.

It’s from someone named Bev, who posted her recipe on Recipezaar (now Food.com) and to whom I am eternally grateful. Always has been.

Cases in point: • One of my first-ever memories is of sitting down in front of the TV with a bowl full of macaroni and cheese and watching Emergency! – and feeling pure bliss. • Not long after that was when I realized that a single macaroni and cheese noodle was actually not called a “macaroni and chee.” Major epiphany. • Every birthday, my wonderful Gran actually used to wrap up boxes of Kraft dinner for me.

Best presents ever! I should probably stop there. I have a sneaking suspicion I’m coming off like a total freak.

So back to Bev. Bev posted a recipe that will forever be my go-to recipe for homemade mac and cheese.
