Hi! Does anyone know if it’s okay to refrigerate the macaroni mix BEFORE baking for next day bake??? Thanks!

These are amazing!! It made way more than 36. Probably closer to 50. I packed them down in muffin tins so that they would keep their shape while cooking. The bread crumbs in the bottom were fantastic and allowed the bites to come out effortlessly.

These were made for a wedding and they were a huge hit and disappeared quickly. Several people asked for the recipe. There are easy to make and a great make ahead recipe.

I followed the recipe exactly and they were delicious. They were a big hit at a church potluck with the younger crowd. Problem was the adults scarfed them down, too. And finally a recipe for mac and cheese that doesn't call for Velveeta cheese, which I hate.

Simple appetizer and a hit with kids for dinner! Tried this recipe with a few different types of cheese and it turned out well every time. Also added a little more garlic powder and some Parmesan cheese (like mentioned in the comment below!). Delicious every time!

I made 18 larger bites by using a regular size tin. I omitted the Swiss cheese and used 3 cups of cheddar cheese for the recipe. Originally I made this for the kids but I ended up liking it also.

They were cute, but not that tasty. A little dry, I think due to the breadcrumbs (too much). I won't make these again.

My daughter is the ultimate mac and cheese lover, and she gave these 10 ! I made the recipe, filled up the cups, and still had enough leftover for probably another 12! But, she told me she'd eat it that as is. With the leftovers, I froze some, and the rest I put in baggie, so she can warm them up when she wants! Thanks for a great recipe. BTW, next time, instead of bread crumbs, I'm going to sprinkle the bottoms of the cups with grated Parmesan cheese!

I made these for my family Christmas party, but I screwed it up. Instead of making 2 cups of elbows, I cooked the whole box. I was wondering why I had so much left and then I realized what I did. I did bake them and they were a little dry and didn't look much like the picture, but I didn't have time to make anything else. Well, they were all gone in 15 minutes. Everyone loved them, and want them again next year. What I had left, I put in a casserole dish and I'll add more white sauce, add some breadcrumbs and I have mac and cheese for four.

This went over well at a work gathering. Most everyone loves mac and cheese and it was nice to have a different type of appetizer.
