Sprinkle in all of your cheddar and about half of your mozzarella.

Cook for 2 minutes, stirring occasionally. Toss the macaroni and any remaining liquid from the pot into the skillet. The sauce should start to thicken in this time. Whisking constantly, pour the other cup of milk into the skillet and cook for another 2 minutes. The mixture should start to bubble during this time. Toss in the garlic and cook for 2 minutes, stirring frequently.Īdd your flour to the skillet and whisk for about 2 minutes. In a skillet over medium heat, melt down the butter. Set the element to medium-high and cook the pasta, stirring often, until al dente. In a medium sized pot, combine together the macaroni, 1 cup of milk, and our West Coast IPA. If you don’t have a skillet, just use a frying pan on the stove and then transfer to a casserole dish before tossing this cheesy goodness into the oven. Our recipe uses a skillet so you can go straight from the stovetop to the oven. Okay, okay, we’ll stop with the melodramatics…but seriously, props to the first person who figured out they could put IPA in their mac and cheese! Here at Old Yale, we’ve developed our own hoppy version of this classic comfort dish that we’re confident will have you going back for seconds. It’s for those who have persevered out of a desire to better themselves and this world we all live in… Good news is, you'll have enough butter and milk to make more of these for way less than 10 bucks.Įnough money talk, let's get to the fun stuff.This is for anybody out there who has ever pushed their own doubts and fears aside and dared to dream of doing something they didn’t think possible. Because alas, we can't buy only four tablespoons of butter or an ounce of milk at the supermarket. so I guess Canadians get it, too.Ī little note on how we did this: We calculated the cost of each recipe by how much it’d be to purchase the minimum number of individual ingredients (not cost per serving). Yes, that was a reference to the Barenaked Ladies. Even though I'm rich now (compared to 7-year-old Perry) and don't have to eat Kraft dinner, I still do, I just eat more. Sure, there was a #failplate or two (Spam + Twix comes to mind), but things came out pretty good for the most part. Growing up in a sparsely stocked kitchen (yeah, we were poor) meant making do with what we had. And even then, I messed around with the ingredients. I'm pretty sure it was the first thing I ever cooked on my own, with my tiny apron, and my tiny step stool, and my tiny fire extinguisher. If you didn't eat it as a young 'un, you're probably not American.

Boxed macaroni and cheese is a rite of passage.
