Directions:
Cook macaroni according to package directions.

Sauce: Melt butter in sauce pan over low heat, blend in flour until smooth and begins to form "ball". SLOWLY, and stirring constantly, add a little milk to begin sauce. After flour and milk incorporates together alternately add milk and cheese. Continue until cheese is melted and sauce starts to thicken. Sauce is ready when it coats a wooden spoon. Remove from heat and add pepper.
Combine sauce with cooked elbows and place in 2 1/2 quart greased casserole dish.
Topping: Melt butter until bubbly. Add bread cubes and stir to coat. Spread over mac & cheese. Cover.

Bake at 350º for 30 minutes and cheese sauce is bubbly. Remove cover for last few minutes to brown bread crumbs.

Note 1: A deeper dish works better than a
shallow dish.

Note 2: If having a large crowd double all
ingredients and bake in a larger dish.
