Ingredients

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into small pieces, plus more for baking dish 3 cups milk 4 tablespoons tomato paste 1 teaspoon coarse salt, plus more for water 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground pepper 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper, or to taste 3 cups grated white cheddar cheese 1 cup grated Swiss cheese 1 pound elbow macaroni Sour cream, for serving

Directions

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Butter a 2 1/2-quart casserole dish; set aside.

Warm the milk and tomato paste in a medium saucepan over medium-low heat. Whisk in the salt, pepper, cayenne pepper, cheddar cheese, and 1/2 cup Swiss cheese; set the cheese sauce aside.

Cover a large pot of salted water, and bring to a boil. Cook until pasta is al dente, about 7 minutes. Drain well in a colander. Stir macaroni into reserved cheese sauce.

Pour mixture into prepared dish. Top with remaining 1/2 cup Swiss cheese, and dot with butter. Bake until golden brown and bubbling, about 45 minutes. Serve hot with sour cream, if desired.

    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       09/28/2013   This Mac & cheese has become a family tradition not only for me but for my daughter in law. It is delicious and very easy to make. I recommend it highly! Thanks Martha  

Martha Stewart Member     Rating: 3 stars       07/17/2012   I thought this was just okay. (Although I made this for a family dinner and my brother was thrilled that I let him take home the leftovers- he loved it!). I found it to be a little dry, and probably could have used a bit more salt.
