📝 Preparation Steps
1
Preheat the oven to 350°F. Place the crackers in a large plastic, zip-top bag and crush slightly, leaving some large chunks. Set aside.
2
Plunge the broccoli into boiling water and allow to boil for ⏱️ 1 minute. Strain and set aside.
3
Cut the Velveeta into chunks. Throw it into a large pot with the milk, cream, salt, pepper, and cayenne. Melt, stirring occasionally, until totally smooth. Stir in the Dijon mustard, if using.
4
Add the broccoli to the cheese sauce, then add half the cracker crumbs. Stir to combine, then pour the mixture into a buttered 13-by-9-inch baking dish. Top with the remaining cracker crumbs, then sprinkle the top generously with black pepper.
5
Bake until the top is golden brown and the casserole is bubbly, 15 to ⏱️ 20 minutes.
