Halloween Mac And Cheese Recipes

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of generously salted water to a boil. Fill a large bowl with ice water.
• Cut the tops off the peppers and reserve. Remove the seeds and membranes. Put the peppers and the tops in the boiling water and cook until just tender, 2 to 3 minutes. Plunge the peppers into the ice bath. Once cool, remove them and use a sharp knife to carve a jack-o-lantern face into one side of each pepper.
• Return the water to a boil, add the macaroni and cook until al dente, about 6 minutes. Reserve 1 cup of the pasta water and drain (don't rinse the pasta).
• Heat the half-and-half in a large saucepan over medium heat until it just comes to a simmer. Continue simmering until reduced to about 3/4 cup, about 10 minutes. Add the cream cheese and stir until melted. Whisk in the Cheddar until all the cheese is melted and the sauce is smooth.
• Off the heat, add the macaroni to the saucepan and stir to combine. Stir in some of the reserved pasta water to thin the sauce if needed. Season with salt if needed. Let sit for 10 minutes, then divide the mac and cheese among the peppers and cap each with a pepper top.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Pour the evaporated milk in a medium saucepot and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Toss together the grated cheeses and cornstarch in a bowl until evenly coated, then add the mustard. Add the cheese mixture to the simmering evaporated milk and whisk constantly, being careful not to scald or scorch the bottom of the pot, until homogeneous and thickened, about 10 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Reserve 1 1/2 cups of cheese sauce in a heatproof measuring cup.
• Add the sauce to the macaroni and season to taste. Reserve 1 cup mac 'n' cheese and stir the remaining mac 'n' cheese with the beaten eggs.
• Spray the inside of a Bundt pan with a liberal amount of cooking spray. Working quickly, spread the macaroni mixture into the pan and bake until golden brown, about 25 minutes. Let cool 10 minutes.
• Microwave the reserved cup cheese sauce (or reheat gently on the stovetop) until pourable, 2 to 3 minutes, then add the orange food coloring until the desired orange color is achieved.
• Using a thin spatula, loosen the mac 'n' cheese from the sides of the Bundt. Turn out on a dish and fill the hole with the reserved cup mac 'n' cheese. Cover with the remaining orange cheese sauce. For extra effect, add the broccoli stem in the center. Serve immediately!
