Tini Viral Mac and Cheese

Born and raised in New Orleans, Louisiana (known for some of the best food in the world) I have a mixture of personal recipes as well as some favorites I've found along the way.

Recently, however, millions of people have agreed that this viral macaroni and cheese is the best way to make it from now on. In November, TikTok user Tini posted a video demonstrating how she makes mac and cheese for the holiday season. The recipe has an incredible two-and-a-half pounds of cheese—all grated by hand—plus a creamy roux made from evaporated milk and heavy cream. And, unlike most mac and cheese recipes, Tini’s doesn’t use elbow macaroni—but cavatappi instead.

1 Lb Cavatappi pasta or elbow macaroni

1 Lb Mozzarella 16 OZ (shredded)

1 Lb Colby Jack 16 OZ (shredded)

½ Lb Sharp cheddar 8 OZ (shredded)

12 Ounces Evaporated milk 1 Can

2 Cups Heavy whipping cream

1 teaspoon Salt

1 teaspoon Garlic powder

1 teaspoon Smoked paprika

1 Tablespoon Dijon mustard

3 Tablespoons Unsalted butter

3 Tablespoons All purpose flour
