Creamy Macaroni & Cheese For Two

Features:
    Cuisine:

    Great size for two people. used 16 oz cast iron pans/cups to make this in and it fit the two of them perfectly. The servings were generous but not overly large. For my tastes, personally, I would opt to use a mixture of cheeses or a mild cheddar. I also added a bit of Dijon, maybe a teaspoon and a pinch of nutmeg. I also added about 1/2 cup more of milk to loosen it up a bit. Finally, I mixed melted butter and some panko and topped the bowls with that before baking. I gave this recipe 5 stars because honestly, if I were more of a fan of sharp cheddar like my husband is, I would have LOVED it.
