I suggest putting a plate/bowl underneath your mug because the water tends to overflow for me.

i definately altered the recipe a bit here. Now the chances of your macaroni being really creamy are probably low because it is in the microwave but what i do is add a little more water cook it in intervals of 2: Once for 4 1/2 min and then again for 3 1/2 to make surethe noodles arent hard. Then i add my milk and alot of cheese and cook for 2 1/2 min. 👌🏾

Maybe try only 2 tablespoons of milk, mine was very soupy and tasted a lot like milk. Otherwise a good recipe, I was surprised the noodles actually cooked.
