Gluten Free Mac & Cheese Recipe from Type A Planning!

In a recent post- for Vicky + Bee's Birthday party, Betty w/ Type A Planning made a WONDERFUL gluten-free macaroni and cheese for the party. At the party, it was an ABSOLUTE HIT. It was more popular than the gluten version of the mac + cheese... everyone came back for seconds!

Anyway, Betty was kind enough to share the recipe with me, so I could post it here.

Ingredients:
4 c gluten-free elbow pasta (I prefer Tinkyada pasta)
6 Tbs butter
4 Tbs gluten-free flour
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp ground black pepper
4 c milk
1 lb sharp cheddar cheese, cubed

Directions:

1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and butter a casserole dish.
2. Prepare pasta per package instructions.
3. In a stockpot or large sauce pan, melt the 6 tablespoons of butter. On medium heat, blend in the flour, salt and pepper.
4. Add the milk slowly to the pot. Continue to cook and stir mixture until it thickens.
5. Add the cubed cheddar cheese and stir until the mix is melted.
6. Mix the pasta into the cheese mixture, until thoroughly coated with cheese. Then pour the contents into the casserole dish.
7. Bake at 350 degrees F for 35 to 40 minutes.
8. Voila!- Serve while still hot, or reheat as necessary!

Just as good the next day!
