Homemade mac’n'cheese recipe that tastes like the boxed stuff?

I’ve recently been looking for recipes to make boxed meals from scratch (like rice-a-roni and hamburger helper). I wanted to find a recipe that would turn out like Kraft mac’n'cheese. Can you help me?
By homemade mac’n'cheese recipe, I meant a recipe that turns out like boxed mac’n'cheese, not a recipe that uses boxed mac’n'cheese.
