• Mac and Cheese
• 2 large eggs
• 1 can (12 ounces) evaporated milk
• 1/4 teaspoon hot red pepper sauce (I forgot to add this)
• 2 teaspoons salt
• 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 1 teaspoon dry mustard, dissolved in 1 teaspoon water
• 1/2 pound elbow macaroni
• 4 tablespoon butter
• 12 ounces sharp cheddar or Monterey Jack cheese, grated (about 3 cups)
• Toasted Bread Crumbs
• 1 cup fresh bread crumbs
• Pinch of Salt
• 1 1/2 tablespoons melted butter

Heat oven to 350 degrees. Mix bread crumb ingredients together in small baking pan. Bake until golden brown and crisp, 15-20 minutes; set aside.

In a small bowl mix eggs, 1 cup evaporated milk, pepper sauce, 1/2 teaspoon salt, pepper, and mustard mixture; set aside.

Bring 2 quarts of water to boil in a large saucepan. Add remaining 1 1/2 teaspoon salt and macaroni; cook until almost tender but still a little firm to the bite.

Drain and return to pan over low heat. Add butter; toss to melt.

Pour egg mixture over buttered noodles along with three-quarters of the cheese; stir until thoroughly combined and cheese starts to melt.

Gradually add remaining milk and cheese, stirring constantly until mixture is hot and creamy, about 5 minutes. Serve immediately, topped with toasted bread crumbs.
