I did not like this recipe-very over rated!I was so embarassed when I took this to the Thankgiving party today. I cooked it last night and it dried out when I heated it up. Way to dry. I want a good creamy, cheesy macaroni about like wife saver. Help!! In need of one before my Thankgiving dinner. The other macaroni n cheese looked so good today, nobody touched mine, except for my husband, who tried to make me feel better. Even my 4 year old ate the other. The crackers made it even drier. I think they need even more butter, but that might make them soggy.

This recipe is great! I made it for the Superbowl and everyone loved it. My daughter said I need to make it again and again. I followed the recipe exactly except I added extra cubes of Velveeta spread out through it when I added it to the baking dish. Made it really cheesy. Awesome! Thanks, Needa/OH
