- Preheat the oven to 350. Coat an 8 inch square baking dish with nonstick cooking spray. Cook the macaroni according to the package directions until firm; drain and set aside.
- In a large saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Stir in the flour, and cook for 1 - 2 minutes.
- Add the milk, salt, and pepper, and cook over medium heat, until the mixture starts to bubble, stirring occasionally.
- Remove the mixture from the heat and add 2 cups cheese, stirring until melted. Add the macaroni; mix well then pour into the baking dish.
- Top with the remaining 1/4 cup cheese and sprinkle with the bread crumbs. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the mixture is bubbly and the top is golden.
