Upgrade Boxed Mac And Cheese With One Creamy Ingredient

If you want boxed mac and cheese to be richer and creamier with some extra cheesiness and tang, all you have to do is add a few hearty dollops of cream cheese.

When applied to boxed mac and cheese, cream cheese lends the dish a creamy, béchamel-esque consistency without the

hassle of fussing over a roux.

Simply assemble your boxed mac and cheese normally, adding a few solid spoonfuls of cream cheese in with the butter, milk, and cheese powder, and then mixing everything together.
