A rich and creamy baked macaroni and cheese recipe that is perfect for family dinners or gatherings.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a baking dish.
Greasing the dish prevents sticking and makes cleanup easier.
Cook the macaroni in a saucepan of boiling salted water until al dente, then drain.
Cooking the pasta al dente ensures it doesn't become mushy during baking.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, salt, and pepper.
Whisking thoroughly ensures even distribution of flavors.
Combine the cooked macaroni, cheddar cheese, and mozzarella cheese in the baking dish.
Mixing the cheeses with the pasta ensures a creamy texture.
Pour the milk mixture over the macaroni and cheese, then sprinkle breadcrumbs on top.
Breadcrumbs add a delightful crunch to the dish.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes, or until the top is golden and bubbling.
Letting the dish bake until bubbling ensures the cheese is fully melted.
Let the dish cool for 5 minutes before serving.
Allowing the dish to cool slightly makes it easier to serve.
