How to make great macaroni and cheese!

Beats the stuff in the blue and yellow box, hands down, in my opinion!
Boil 8 Oz. macaroni. Drain. Leave macaroni in strainer. In same pan, melt 1/4 cup butter. Once butter is melted, stir in 1/4 Cup flour and 1 tsp. salt. Cook and stir to a soft paste. Add: 1 cup milk and 1 cup cream. Cook over medium heat until mixture thickens. Stir in 2 cups shredded cheese. I have found the very best taste comes from using Monterrey Jack cheese, but you can use cheddar or whatever you like!. Once the cheese is all melted, add in the cooked and drained macaroni. Stir it all up, and enjoy!
