This is a simple as it gets.

1) Boil macaroni until cooked, drain, return to pot.
2) Add butter OR margarine sufficient to lightly coat, return to low heat
stirring.
3) Add grated cheese (I prefer a firm cheddar style), stir. Don't use
commercial grated cheese that has anti-caking agents, it will turn to crap.
4) Add milk a dsp at a time stiring until the cheese melts and combines.
Too much milk and it will split.
5) Serve as is or with grated favourite strong dry cheese.
