Macaroni and Cheesecake
Ingredients:
4 cups milk
1/4 cup (1/2 stick) unsalted butter
1 cup uncooked quick cooking grits
1 egg
2 cups shredded Sharp Cheddar cheese
1 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup grated Parmesan
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray an 11 x 7 baking dish with cooking spray, set aside.
In a large saucepan, add milk and bring to a boil on medium high heat. Once just boiling, add in the butter and grits.
Reduce heat to medium and allow to simmer, stirring constantly, approximately 5-7 minutes until thickened and grits become an oatmeal like consistency.
Remove mixture from heat and add in the egg, cheese, salt & pepper. Stir to incorporate. Pour into the prepared baking dish and sprinkle the top with Parmesan.
Bake for approximately 35 to 40 minutes, until bubbly and a nice golden color on top. Serve immediately.
