Directions:Heat oven to 350º Cook pasta according to package directions and set aside. In a large skillet, melt butter until bubbly. Add flour, salt and pepper and whisk into a paste. Slowly add milk and continue whisking until it comes to a simmer and thickens enough to cover the back of a spoon. Add cream cheese and stir until melted. Reduce heat and add white cheddar and stir until melted. Add yellow cheddar and stir until melted. Add nutmeg, stir to combine. Turn off heat. In a large bowl combine pasta, cheese sauce and lobster, stir until mixed through. Spoon Mac and cheese into a well greased mini muffin tin. Using a cookie scoop works great. Top the Mac and cheese with a sprinkle of bread crumbs. Bake for 30 minutes, let cool about 10 minutes before removing from the muffin tin. Serve immediately.
Notes: Use a regular size muffin pan or jumbo size to turn this into a larger individual portion.
Instead of making smaller portions, serve this family style. Bake in a casserole dish.
Also can, after mixing the macaroni, cheese sauce and lobster together, serve right away instead of baking. |
