20 mins cooking time, yeah right! Try doubling it, me thinks I should have boiled the pasta first.

I made this for my sons and they loved it. I agree with the comments regarding the flour, it was very thick. I ended up hving to add more milk and some water in orderto cook the pasta. I will try and use cooked pasta the next time I make this.

i recommend pre cooking the macaroni as the sauce dried up before the pasta was finished cooking

Altered ingredient amounts. I didn't put too much flour, it was thick enough as it was. Also, to make it healthier I put less butter.
