    | 1. Cook macaroni in a pot on the stove until el dente. Drain and set aside. | 2. While cooking the pasta, grate the cheese and set aside. In a 4 cups glass measuring cup melt the butter for 45 seconds on high. stir in the flour, salt, Worcestershire, mustard and pepper. Warm the milk on high for 1 minute or until warm.

Stir until melted. | 3. In a 1 1/2 quart micro-proof casserole combine sauce and cooked macaroni. | 4. The original recipe calls for only 1 1/2 cups of cheese being added to the sauce and the other 1/2 cup being mixed with the cracker crumbs and place on top. We never have. | 5.
