Both my sister and I have created our own stovetop homemade macaroni & cheese. But, honestly, the baked mac & cheese my mom made is the best. Designed for a large crowd, our just our family, this mac & cheese is sure to please. Great for a pot luck. See the notes in the recipe for options while making it.
Cook macaroni according to directions, drain, rinse with cold water, and set aside.
Butter the inside of your baking pan or dish and put one layer of macaroni (about 1/3) on the bottom.
Sprinkle the macaroni with 1/3 of the onions, dots of butter, 1/3 of shredded cheese and 1/3 each of the other cheese slices randomly distributed. Sprinkle with Salt & Pepper if desired.
Add the next 2 layers in like manner, topping with the cheese layer.
Pour the milk evenly on top of the cheese.
Cover and bake in a 350 degree oven for about 2 hours. To make the top browned (as pictured), remove the cover 15 minutes before it is done.
Serve hot.
