- Take the lid off the Easy Mac cup and remove the cheese sauce packet. Set the cheese sauce packet aside for later use.

- Microwave on high for 3 1/2 minutes. This cooking time applies to microwaves with a power output of 1000 watts and may vary depending on your microwave's wattage.

4. **Stir In Cheese Sauce**

- Immediately add the cheese sauce mix.
- Stir the cheese sauce thoroughly into the macaroni until it's fully combined and the cheese is evenly distributed.
5. **Let It Stand**

- Enjoy your Kraft Easy Mac right from the cup, but remember, it may still be hot.
