Yield: 10 to 12 Servings


Ingredients

· 1 Pound Large Elbow Macaroni, uncooked

· 12 Ounces Sharp Cheddar Cheese, grated

· 4 Ounces Colby Jack, grated

· 8 Ounces Mild Cheddar Cheese, grated

· 12 Ounces Velveeta, cut into small cubes

· ½ Cup (1 Stick) Butter, melted

· 1½ Cup Whole Milk, room temperature

· 2½ Cup Half & Half, room temperature

· 1½ Teaspoons Smoked Paprika

· 1½ Teaspoons or To Taste Kosher Salt

· 1 Teaspoon or To Taste Black Pepper

· To Taste Grand Diamond All Purpose Seasoning

· 3 Eggs, beaten

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 Degrees

Grate all of the cheeses using a hand grater or a food processor. Set aside.

In a large stock pot, bring about 4 quarts of water to a boil over medium-high heat. Season the water with 3 to 4 tablespoons of salt. Add the macaroni to the boiling water and cook for half of the manufacturer’s recommended cooking time. Once done, drain.

In a very large bowl, combine the milk, half & half, melted butter, Colby jack, sharp cheddar, 4 ounces of mild cheddar (reserve the remaining 4 ounces for the top), macaroni and the seasonings to taste. Stir to combine. (Note: Taste the mixture to make sure it’s seasoned to your desired taste.) Finally, add the beaten eggs and stir to combine.

Pour the macaroni and cheese into a lightly greased 9x13 baking dish. Sprinkle the remaining mild cheddar on top. Bake uncovered for about 50 minutes to 1 hour. Once done, allow the dish to set for about 10 minutes. Serve hot.
