Ingredients:
  • 1 (8 ounce) box elbow macaroni
  • 0.25 cup butter
  • 0.25 cup all-purpose flour
  • 0.5 teaspoon salt

  • Bring a generously salted pot of water to a boil. Add elbow macaroni and cook until al dente, about 8 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • Simultaneously, melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat.
  • Combine the flour, salt, and pepper, stirring until the mixture is smooth, which should take about 5 minutes.
  • Gradually pour in milk while stirring constantly. Cook and stir until the mixture is smooth and bubbling, which should take around 5 minutes, ensuring the milk doesn't scorch.

  • Serve while piping hot and savor every blissful bite!
