Macaroni and Cheese Bake

Preheat oven to 350 degree and butter a large, deep baking dish.
In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook macaroni according to package instructions until just al dente.
Drain and set aside.
In a large bowl, combine cooked pasta and butter and season with salt and pepper to taste.
Stir in 2 cups cheddar cheese.
Add half of the macaroni mixture to prepared baking dish.
Sprinkle Colby-cheddar cheese blend over pasta mixture, then top with another layer of pasta (similar to making a lasagna).
In a medium bowl, beat together eggs and milk then pour evenly over pasta.
Cover baking dish with aluminum foil and bake for 25 to 35 minutes.
Do not overbake! It may be a bit jiggly when you take it out of the oven.
Turn on oven broiler.
Top with the remaining cheddar cheese.
(I add a little more Colby-jack as well) and broil until golden! It will firm up as it cool.
