About 8 years ago Kraft decided to make Mac and Cheese even easier to make than it already was. So they included directions on how to make it in the microwave on the classic blue box. Then they realized that this was such a good idea that they started selling it in individual sized portions for about the same cost of the normal boxes and stopped printing the microwave directions on the classic boxes. I am sure that this was intended to force people to buy the more expensive smaller servings if they wanted the convenience of using the microwave. However the joke is on them since I still remember the directions.
In a large microwavable bowl add the noodles and 1 3/4 cups water. Microwave for 3 minutes and stir. Repeat 2 more times to make total cook time 9 minutes. Then add the usual 4 tablespoons of butter, 1/4 cup milk and cheese powder.
