I only use a splash of milk myself. I prefer more butter.

Same. Too much milk and it removes all the taste of the "cheese".

But I feel like they changed the recipe in the last few years on that. Or there's less cheese powder. Because I remember adding exactly what is written on the box and it tasting fine, now if I add anywhere near that amount (around 75ml, or 1/3 of a cup of milk), the taste goes out the window and it just tastes bad. I've even started making it entirely with just a spoonful of butter/margarine, no milk. Taste great.

 

Plus, the butter helps to keep it from becoming dry.

I follow the instructions on the box, and it comes out fine. 

 

Just have to remember to eat it all before it sets, because leftovers always turn out gritty.

Realistically, more water is better.  Just don't go overkill and fill up a 20 quart stock pot for a single box of KD. 

 

And as others have said, use more butter than milk.  If you're using Canadian KD, it has a better cheese sauce that is nicely enhanced with the creaminess from adding extra butter.

 

...and don't forget to chop some hot dogs into the final dish lol

What do you expect from semolina pasta?

That's the great thing about KD. 

 

You can use whatever you have. 

 

Butter, margerine, milk, cream, oat milk, just water. 

 

Water and a box of KD is all you need.

ya the extra creamy has the most cheddar.
