This silky, creamy mac and cheese tastes just like the famous Cracker Barrel version but comes together in minutes on your stovetop. No complicated sauce required!
Cook the macaroni according to the package directions. Drain the pasta, reserving 1/3 cup of pasta water.
Return the cooked pasta to the pot and set the heat to medium-low. Add the American cheese, evaporated milk, and reserved pasta water and stir until the cheese has melted. Serve immediately.
