Macaroni and Cheese (Cheddar, Velveeta, Cheez Whiz)

macaronicheesevelveetaSo here is the "unhealthy" macaroni and cheese that I remember from childhood. With all of its melty and soft texture, it is as good as ever and so family-friendly.

2 cups milk
¼ cup butter
¼ cup all-purpose flour, unbleached
¼ lb Velveeta
½ cup Cheez Whiz
sea salt
black pepper, freshly ground
1 Tbsp. Worcestershire sauce
2 cups macaroni
4 oz cheddar cheese, shredded
Parmesan cheese
butter, melted

Preheat an oven to at 350°F (180°C/160°C fan, Gas Mark 4).

Heat milk to steaming but not boiling. Cook together butter and flour. Add to hot milk.

Add Velveeta, cubed and Cheez Whiz. Season with salt and pepper. Stir continually until smooth and bubbly.

Add Worcestershire sauce.

Cook Macaroni.

Pour sauce over cooked macaroni and stir. Top with shredded cheddar cheese. Sprinkle liberally with Parmesan cheese. Drizzle butter over Parmesan.

Bake in a preheated oven for approximately 45 minutes.

Let sit for 10 minutes before serving.
