Gently stir in macaroni.
1 package Mac and Cheese
Add eggs and fold until combined.
2 eggs
Spoon into greased mini muffin tins.
In a small bowl, combine remaining bread crumbs and melted butter with a fork.
3 Tablespoons butter, melted
Sprinkle over bites.
Bake 18-20 minutes or until heated through. Serve warm.

Pack the mixture tightly: This helps the bites hold together and not crumble.

Use freshly grated cheese: It melts better and gives a smoother texture.

Don’t skip the panko topping: It creates that signature crispy finish.

Let them cool slightly: This helps the bites firm up before removing from the pan.
