John's Mac n' Cheese
Ingredients:
4 tablespoons (½ stick) unsalted butter, plus more for buttering the baking dish
3 cups (¾ pound) dry elbow macaroni
2 (12-ounce) cans evaporated milk
⅓cup whole milk
2 eggs
2 teaspoons seasoning salt, such as Lawry’s
1 teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, plus more to taste
4 cups (1 pound) extra-sharp cheddar cheese, grated
2 cups (½ pound) Monterey Jack cheese, grated + Paprika, for sprinkling
Directions:
Preheat the oven to 375°F. Generously butter a 9x13-inch baking dish; set aside.
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the macaroni and cook according to package directions until al dente. Drain well and return the pasta to the pot. Add the butter and toss until the pasta is coated and butter has melted; set aside.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the evaporated milk, whole milk, and eggs. Stir in the seasoning salt, garlic powder, 1 teaspoon salt, and ½ teaspoon pepper. In another medium bowl, combine cheddar and Jack cheeses.
Spread one third of the macaroni in an even layer in the bottom of the buttered baking dish and cover evenly with one-third of the cheese. Repeat with the remaining macaroni and shredded cheeses. Pour the milk mixture evenly over the contents of the baking dish, sprinkle with paprika, and bake until the top layer is lightly browned, 40–45 minutes. Let stand 10 to 15 minutes before serving.
