Macaroni and Cheese~Miss Prissy

1 box elbow macaroni 2 eggs, well beaten
2 - 3 c. heavy whipping cream 1 c. mild cheddar cheese, shredded
2 c. sharp cheddar cheese, shredded salt and pepper
2 tbsp real butter
Preheat oven to 375°. Boil a large pot of salted water. Add pasta. Watch for doneness.
Do NOT over cook the mac noodles. Drain and place in to a buttered casserole dish.
In saucepan heat cream and butter slowly so as not scorch. Add sharp shredded cheese
and whisk often so that the cheese melts and does not stick and burn on the bottom of
the pan. Once the cheese is melted temper the beaten eggs then add to the sauce pot.
Stir, stir, stir. You do not want hunks of scrambled egg in your sauce. A little salt and
pepper for seasoning. Pour cheese sauce over cooked macaroni. Mix gently to coat all
the noodles in sauce and allow the sauce to fill the hole in the noodle. Top with mild
cheddar cheese. Place on a baking sheet and into the hot oven. Allow to bake until the
cheese sauce is set and the top is golden.

Sorry

I have to ask - what does "temper the beaten eggs" mean? (a cook I am not)

 

[halo]

From what I understand, you cant just pour the beaten eggs in the hot cheese, it will turn to scrambled eggs. So I poured a little cheese in the beaten eggs, stirred, poured a little more in, stirred, a little more, stirred, then poured the egg/cheese mixture into the pan with the cheese mix, stirred; that way it blends in without cooking.

I can't 'splain it well, hopefully someone else will.
