Homemade Creamy Mac and Cheese


This recipe comes from my friend Raejean Beattie of Hopsewee Plantation in Georgetown, South Carolina, where macaroni and cheese gets an unexpected upgrade. Raejean adds a pinch of fresh rosemary, turning a classic into something memorable and full of flavor that lingers in the best way!

This fabulous creamy mac is prepared atop the stove, then baked to make a cheesy dish of comfort whenever you need a Homemade Creamy Mac and Cheese fix!

You’ll love each bite of this indulgently creamy sauce, tender noodles, and the crispy breadcrumb topping.

It’s the ultimate Southern comfort food for a side dish or main course!

Visit Charleston, South Carolina

Tucked inside a pair of restored 1860s townhomes in Charleston’s historic Cannonborough-Elliottborough district, 86 Cannon is an adults-only retreat that trades bustle for stillness and blends Southern charm with polished luxury. With just ten rooms, the stay feels more like a private club than a hotel—think Frette linens, quiet verandas, a tranquil courtyard, and complimentary wine and cheese each evening.

Spend your day pedaling past hidden gardens on hotel bikes, lounging by the saltwater plunge pool, or slipping into Charleston’s fine dining scene just steps away. Whether it’s oysters by the water or candlelit small plates down a cobblestone lane, the city’s culinary gems are always within reach—and 86 Cannon offers the kind of serene return you’ll want to come back to again and again.

PS. Loving my emails? Buy me a coffee :) It's like a thank you note, but with a little extra love.
