    use a white sauce ~ milk, flour & butter ~ there's a fancy name but I forget what it is, melt the butter and sift in flour, stir, add mild, whisk until smooth and thick, it's a basic gravy base, so you can flavour this sauce as you like....mmmmm love mac & chez

    After boiling & draining the macaroni, add 1/2 stick of butter [that is already soft from being taken out of the refrigerator to soften] & the powdered "cheese" at the same time, stir together with a fork. Don't use ANY milk. This works for me every time. The only drawback is waiting for the butter to soften before boiling the macaroni - sometimes it can take a while.

    I noticed that too when I used to make "Cheesey Noodle Soup" ... that's what I used to call it anyway ...

    Cheesy Mac soup. Try adding brocoli to it. What I do with the noodles, I normally let it cool down first and then chop the noodles up. My bf is a chef and he likes how I do it.

    Make sure your measuring cup is accurate. I'd been using a 2.5 cup for a while thinking it was a 2 cup. It did make a difference.

    "Fail"? Hardly. You said you followed the directions, but if you accidentally used the wrong size cup that could be your problem. If you drained but didn't drain enough that could be your problem. Using skim milk could be your problem. You're the one here who can't make box mac and cheese by following the directions. Your words. You do it wrong when you follow the directions. YOU do it WRONG. I offer suggestions and you tell me I've failed? lol It's not me here who has the problem!

    Not fail. I just refuse to follow orders on the back of a cardboard box, knowing what awaits me if I do.
