Southern Style Baked Macaroni and Cheese
rec.food.recipes/Mr. Midnight/2000

This is my Mother's recipe.

1 medium pkg (6 oz or so) elbow macaroni -- the LARGE kind is best
1 pound New York Sharp cheddar-- grated
1 teaspoon dry mustard
3 eggs, beaten
Milk
Salt and pepper

Cook macaroni 'till it is JUST getting soft (too soft and you'll have mush.)

Drain the water and add 3/4 of the cheese, the mustard, spices, eggs and just enough milk to bring the liquid up to the level of the still hot macaroni. Stir well and heat on the stovetop 'till the cheese melts good and cover with aluminum foil.

Bake for about 25 to 35 minutes or until the center is whitish. Remove the foil and add the remainder of the cheese to the top and bake an additional five minutes.

If you want to get real fancy, add some chopped scallions or a few slices of cooked bacon on top. Also, the sharper cheese you use, the better. Yummy.
