Ingredients

1 lb elbow macaroni
4 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese
2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
4 cups milk
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon paprika (optional)
1/2 cup breadcrumbs (for topping)

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a large pot, cook the elbow macaroni according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Once melted, whisk in the flour to create a roux. Cook for about 1 minute until it turns a light golden-brown.
Gradually pour in the milk while whisking continuously. Cook until the sauce thickens and comes to a gentle boil.
Reduce the heat to low, then stir in the shredded cheddar, mozzarella, and Parmesan cheese until they are completely melted and the sauce is smooth.
Season the cheese sauce with salt, black pepper, and paprika, if desired.
Combine the cooked macaroni with the cheese sauce, mixing thoroughly to ensure all the pasta is coated in that delicious cheesy goodness.
Transfer the macaroni and cheese mixture to a greased 9x13-inch baking dish.
For a crunchy topping, sprinkle breadcrumbs evenly over the top.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is golden and bubbly.
Remove from the oven and let it sit for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy your Southern Macaroni and Cheese!
