This masterpiece is everything you could ever want in the classic dish—elbow noodles, two kinds of melty cheese, and bits of ham.
Ingredients
- 12 oz elbow macaroni
- 8 oz sharp yellow Cheddar
- 4 oz Monterey Jack cheese
- 2 cups diced ham
- 2 tbsp all-purpose flour
- 2 tsp mustard powder
- 2 tsp onion powder
- 2 large eggs
- ⅔ cup sour cream
- 2 cups whole milk
- ¾ tsp salt
Steps
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Cook the macaroni for half the time of package directions.
- Meanwhile, into a large bowl, coarsely grate the Cheddar and Monterey Jack cheeses, reserving 1 cup for topping. Stir in drained macaroni and ham. Transfer to 2½-qt baking dish.
- In a medium bowl, whisk the flour, mustard powder, onion powder, and eggs together. Whisk in the sour cream, milk, and ¾ tsp salt. Season with black pepper. Pour over macaroni in baking dish. Stir to combine. Top with reserved grated cheeses.
- Bake 30 min., until bubbly and custard is set. Let stand 10 min. before serving.
Tips
For a golden brown top, use a broiler-safe baking dish and broil for 2‒3 min. after baking. Garnish with chopped chives.
