Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly butter a 9x13-inch baking dish.

  2. In a large pot of salted boiling water, cook the macaroni according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

  3. In the same pot, melt 4 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add the flour and cook, stirring constantly, for about 2 minutes to make a roux.

  4. Slowly whisk in the milk, making sure there are no lumps. Cook the mixture, stirring occasionally, until it thickens and coats the back of a spoon, about 5-7 minutes.

  5. Remove the pot from heat and add the cheddar, Gruyere, Parmesan cheeses, mustard, nutmeg, salt, and pepper. Stir until the cheeses are fully melted and the sauce is smooth.

  6. Add the cooked macaroni to the cheese sauce and mix until well combined. Transfer the mac and cheese mixture to the prepared baking dish.

  7. In a small saucepan, melt the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter. Stir in the breadcrumbs until coated evenly.

  8. Sprinkle the buttered breadcrumbs over the macaroni and cheese in the baking dish.

  9. Bake the mac and cheese in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the cheese is bubbling around the edges.

  10. Allow the dish to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy the creamy, cheesy goodness of Martha Stewart's Macaroni Cheese Recipe on Food52 with your loved ones!
