Buttery Cracker Topped Baked Mac & Cheese
2 - 14 oz. boxes Kraft Deluxe Macaroni & Cheese
1 pint heavy cream
4 oz. piece Velveeta
1 cup shredded mild cheddar cheese, divided
1 - 8 oz. container sour cream
1 sleeve Ritz crackers, crushed
4 tablespoons butter or margarine, melted
Paprika
Pre-heat oven to 375 degrees.
Meanwhile, prepare both boxes of the mac & cheese as directed on box. Stir in 1/2 cup of the cheddar shredded cheese, Velvetta and sour cream. Add the heavy cream and mix well. Spoon into a 2 1/2-quart casserole dish sprayed with cooking spray. Top mac & cheese with remaining shredded cheese. In a small bowl, combine the melted margarine with the crushed crackers then sprinkle over the casserole. Sprinkle crackers with some paprika.
Bake for 20 minutes and be ready to eat the entire bowl!
Footnote - I made this on Wednesday and my husband and I had it as leftovers for dinner yesterday. It heated up beautifully without having to add butter or more cream.
