Slowly add in the milk, whisking constantly until the mixture is smooth. Bring the mixture to a boil and then reduce the heat to low. Simmer for 3-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce begins to thicken.
Now it’s time to add the cheese. Slowly add in the grated cheese, stirring until it’s completely melted and the sauce is smooth. Once the cheese has melted, season the sauce with salt, pepper, and any other desired seasonings.
Finally, combine the macaroni and cheese sauce. Pour the cheese sauce over the macaroni and stir until the macaroni is completely coated. Transfer the macaroni and cheese to a baking dish and top with extra grated cheese.
Bake the macaroni and cheese in a preheated 350-degree oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly. Serve the creamy mac and cheese warm and enjoy!
