It’s comfort food with a twist that’ll make your taste buds dance. Simple, friendly, and oh-so-delicious – a surefire way to satisfy your cravings for something hearty and a little spicy!
THE PASTA
My favorite pasta to use for this recipe is elbow macaroni. But you can also use any type of pasta you prefer. I would recommend ziti, fusilli or rigatoni .Begin by cooking the pasta to the perfect al dente texture, following the package instructions, and don’t forget to add a pinch of salt to the boiling water. As the pasta simmers, save around half a cup of the cooking water, and once the pasta reaches its ideal doneness, simply drain it. This way, you can efficiently multitask, starting the sauce while the pasta cooks, ensuring everything is ready in harmony.
What Makes Buffalo Mac and Cheese Special?
This dish is all about spice, creaminess, and texture. The key ingredients that make it stand out:
Buffalo Sauce – Adds tangy, spicy heat. Use Frank’s RedHot or your favorite!
Cheese Blend – A mix of sharp cheddar, mozzarella, and Monterey Jack makes it extra melty.
Chicken (Optional) – Toss in shredded, grilled, or crispy chicken for a heartier meal.

Tips for the Best Buffalo Mac and Cheese
1. Use freshly grated cheese
- Pre-shredded cheese has anti-caking agents that make the sauce grainy.
2. Make a smooth, creamy cheese sauce
- Whisk butter and flour for a roux, then slowly add milk and cheese for a silky sauce.
3. Adjust the heat level
- Add more buffalo sauce for extra spice or mix in a little ranch or blue cheese to cool it down.
4. Use al dente pasta
- The pasta keeps cooking in the sauce, so don’t overcook it.
5. Serve with extra buffalo sauce & blue cheese dressing
- For those who love it extra saucy!
