16 ounces macaroni pasta
8 ounces beer
8 ounces half-and-half
16 ounces cream cheese
1/2 teaspoon mustard powder
16 ounces sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
Preheat the oven to 300 degrees.
Cook the pasta al dente, according to package directions.
Meanwhile, combine the beer, half-and-half, and cream cheese in a large saucepan. Whisk together until smooth.
Add the mustard powder, remove from the heat, and add the cheese, reserving about a cup. Whisk until smooth.
Toss the sauce and pasta together, and place in a baking dish. Sprinkle with the remaining cheese, and bake for about 20 minutes, or until bubbly on top. Serve.
