Instructions
Preheating your oven to 350 degrees.
Grease a 9x13 pan (I prefer glass).
Either by hand or using a food processor crush 1 ½ cups (approx 1 ½ – 2 sleeves) of Ritz Crackers. I generally just put them in a large ziplock bag and use my rolling pin to crush them.
Boil the noodles in a large pot on your stove top until al dente.
While the noodles are cooking, combine the crushed Ritz crackers, 1 cup of the shredded Cheddar Jack Cheese, and the melted butter in a large bowl. Mix well until everything is combined and the entire mixture is wet.
Press the mixture firmly down into the bottom of the greased pan.
In a new bowl, combine the freshly cooked (still hot) macaroni noodles with ½ cup of the shredded Cheddar Jack, the Swiss garlic and herb cheese, and the butter. Mix everything together!
In a third bowl smaller bowl, combine the eggs, milk, sour cream, cayenne pepper and salt. Mix with a whisk! Add the egg mixture to the cooked macaroni mixture, mixing everything until all the ingredients are melted!
Dump the bowl of noodles & cheese mixture into the pan and spread it out.
Top with cooked bacon if you want.
Bake the mac n' cheese for approx 15-20 minutes in the oven, until everything is heated through and the cheese is melted.
