About Devour White Cheddar Mac & Cheese with Bacon TV Commercial, 'Lunch Spank' Oh, yeah! Things get steamy in the break room as Nelson loses himself with each bite of his creamy White Cheddar Mac & Cheese; it has him talking dirty.
![]() Mac and Cheese is one of the BEST comfort foods out there in my honest opinion. I’m not talking about the packaged stuff, but rather the homemade goodness. It truly is special. One of my favorite things about mac and cheese is that you rarely find someone who doesn’t like it- kids included. My picky eaters gobble this stuff up by the bowl full. My favorite part of homemade mac and cheese happens to be the crispy edges and top. It adds just the right amount of crunch. Then it dawned on me why not turn them into mini bite size pieces to make each bite that piece of heaven! Instructions • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.

Whisk until butter is melted and mixture is smooth. Slowly add milk and bring to a simmer. Add 1½ cups of the cheese, cream cheese, salt and pepper. Stir until smooth and creamy. Remove from heat. • In a large mixing bowl, carefully stir pasta, cheese sauce, and egg until evenly mixed and pasta is evenly coated. • Spoon mac and cheese into mini muffin tins and top each with a small pinch of remaining cheese. Bake at 400 degrees F for 15 minutes or until golden brown. • Allow to cool 5 minutes before gently removing the bites. I made these for a party over the weekend. ![]() I added 1tsp mustartd powder (secret ingredient from another recipe.) I think the cream cheese can be taken out - I did not find that it added anything to the flavor compared to my other recipe that uses the same of the rest of the ingredients. I also needed to cook the bites significantly longer than the recipe calls for in order for the bites to stay together - at least 20 minutes, maybe longer. We reheated from room temp for 5 mins at 375 and they were perfect for the party. • Cathleen November 22, 2015. I tested these out for an upcoming baby shower I'll be making them form. They turned out great and I had no problem at all getting them out of the mini muffin tins - altho I generously used cooking spray. Because I'll be making them in advance for the shower I tested both putting some in the fridge and some in the freezer and reheating in the oven the next day. Both options worked, the frozen ones just need to reheat in the oven longer (maybe 15ish minutes on low heat instead of less if just put in fridge). Overall they are good but they did taste a little better when eaten the day of being made, and I found they were a tiny bit dry and could use a little more flavor. Next time I'll add some garlic powder and maybe a bit of dijon mustard. However because they're bite sized they'll naturally be a little more dry than a full pan of mac n cheese, given that the outside of the bit sized piece gets crispy. Definitely a great party snack!
