Instructions
Boil the Noodles
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the egg noodles according to package directions until tender. Drain the noodles and return them to the warm pot immediately.
Melt the Butter
Add the butter to the hot drained noodles and stir until fully melted and coating every noodle evenly. The residual heat from the noodles will melt the butter quickly.
Add Cheese and Milk
Sprinkle in the shredded cheddar cheese and pour in the milk then stir continuously until the cheese melts into a creamy sauce. Add garlic powder and salt and stir again to combine.
Serve Immediately
Divide the cheesy noodles into bowls and serve right away while the cheese is still gooey and warm. Kids love this best fresh off the stove.
