Directions
Preheat oven to 350℉ (180℃) degrees.
Cook macaroni in salted boiling water according to package directions. Drain and rinse well with cold water. Pour into a 3 quart casserole.
In a saucepan, melt butter and stir in flour. Gradually stir in milk and sour cream. Add salt and pepper.
Cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until sauce bubbles and thickens.
Reserve 1 cup grated cheese for the top of the casserole. Toss macaroni with remaining cheese.
Pour sauce over macaroni and mix thoroughly. Sprinkle with remaining cheese.
Bake for 1 hour, or until bubbly and browned.
Serve immediately.
