Baked Macaroni Double Cheese, a delicious and creamy oven baked Cheddar and Parmesan Cheese baked Pasta Dish. The Perfect Weekday or Weekend meal.

Baked Macaroni Double Cheese, a homemade easy creamy mac & cheese recipe, a crunchy topping makes it perfect. The whole family will love it.Baked Macaroni Double Cheese is the perfect comfort dish, fast and easy and made and baked in one skillet.

I shared my news of the departure of my eldest daughter back to Toronto in my last post, and yes today is the day. (sad face).

We have been trying to pack in lots and lots of visits with family and friends these last few days, and to tell the truth maybe I have been lifting the fork more than normal trying to feed my sorrows.

And feed them I did with this Homemade Baked Macaroni Double Cheese.

Ever since I discovered cheddar cheese at the grocery store I knew I had to find a way to combine my two favourite cheeses into one dish. Cheddar and Parmesan cheese. This, my friends is a good one!

I will not apologize for the fact that I was (maybe still am) a lover of a certain boxed macaroni and cheese mix in Canada. But I have to say this homemade Baked Macaroni is on a whole new level.

I decided to use a bigger elbow macaroni this time.

And make sure you cook the pasta with a little bit of an extra al dente, because it will cook more while baking.

        This recipe is neatly identical to my recipe with two exceptions. I use Dijon mustard rather than yellow mustard and add about a teaspoon on onion powder. It’s a great recipe no matter how you make it.
