Matzah Mac & Cheese Recipe

Step 1

Preheat the oven 350°F.

Step 2

Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish, ideally ceramic or Pyrex.

Step 3

In a large shallow dish, whisk together the milk, eggs, salt and pepper. Use a dish that is large enough to place whole squares of matzah into.

Step 4

Dip squares of matzah into the egg and milk mixture before placing them in an even layer on the bottom of the baking dish. Use about ¼ cup of sour cream and spread it evenly onto the bottom layer of matzah. Top the matzah with a heaping ⅓ cup of shredded cheddar cheese, and a heaping ⅓ cup of shredded mozzarella cheese.

Step 5

Repeat the process two more times with layers of dipped matzah squares, sour cream and cheeses.

Step 6

Add one last layer of matzah for a total of 4 layers. Top the matzah with the remaining sour cream and a generous ½ cup of each kind of cheese. Pour the remaining egg and milk mixture over the layers of matzah and cheese. Cover with foil and bake for 35 minutes.

Step 7

Uncover the dish and bake for 5 minutes uncovered, until bubbly and cheesy. Almost all of the liquid should be absorbed into the matzah at this point. If you like your matzah mac & cheese browned on top, turn the oven to broil, and broil for 1-2 minutes (watch carefully, the top will brown fast).

Step 8

Let the dish rest for 5-10 minutes and then serve.
