BUTTERMILK MACARONI AND CHEESE
This buttermilk macaroni and cheese recipe will quickly become a favorite. This is a super easy recipe for macaroni and cheese. I grew up eating macaroni and cheese baked so of course, it’s my favorite. I know so many people enjoy a more creamy stovetop style but for me, I love it baked. This recipe was an experiment that turned out great. I now make it for many family gatherings and Sunday dinners. The buttermilk adds to the creaminess and the Gouda cheese and smoked paprika gives it a bit of a smokey flavor. It’s so good!
Ingredients Needed for Buttermilk Macaroni and Cheese:

You probably won’t be able to find shredded gouda, so you will need to shred it yourself. Gouda is a great cheese and it taste great in this dish.
