8lb elbow macaroni

8lb cheddar cheese, shredded for sauce

2 gallons whole milk, minus six cups

8 teaspoons salt

2 teaspoons pepper

7 lb cheddar cheese, shredded (for topping: use more or less depending on how cheesy you want the top to be)

Directions

Cook macaroni until slightly firm. Drain and set aside in baking pans.

In a large pot, melt margarine and add flour, salt, pepper and milk. Stir until smooth. Add cheese for sauce, stirring until well-blended.

Pour sauce over macaroni, and mix gently.

Sprinkle cheese topping over each dish.
