Ingredients
  

  • cups milk
  • ½ cup Bisquick
  • ¼ teaspoon red pepper sauce
  • 1 cup uncooked macaroni
  • 4 eggs
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese plus ¼ cup for topping

Equipment

  • 10-inch pie plate
  • Blender or hand mixer
  • Mixing bowl

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F. Grease a 10 x 1½-inch pie plate.
  2. In a bowl, combine 2 cups of shredded cheddar cheese and the uncooked macaroni. Sprinkle this mixture evenly into the greased pie plate.
  3. In a blender, combine milk, eggs, Bisquick, salt, and red pepper sauce. Blend on high for about 15 seconds until completely smooth. (If using a hand beater, beat for about 1 minute until the consistency resembles pancake batter.)
  4. Pour the liquid mixture over the macaroni and cheese in the pie plate.
  5. Bake for approximately 40 minutes, or until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean.
  6. Sprinkle the remaining ¼ cup of shredded cheddar over the top and return to the oven for 1-2 minutes, just until the cheese melts.
  7. Allow the pie to cool for 10 minutes before slicing and serving. This cooling time helps the pie set properly for clean slices.

Notes

For the best flavor, use a good quality sharp cheddar cheese, though other varieties work well too. The red pepper sauce adds just a hint of warmth without making the dish spicy - substitute with black pepper if preferred. Small shells or other short pasta shapes can replace macaroni if needed.
To make this a heartier meal, try adding diced ham, crispy bacon, or sautéed mushrooms to the macaroni mixture. For an extra special touch, sprinkle breadcrumbs and herbs on top before baking for a delightful crust.
Leftovers can be refrigerated for up to 3 days and reheat beautifully in the microwave or oven.
