When the macaroni is cooked, spread 1/2 of it into the bottom of a lightly greased 9x13-inch baking dish, 1/2 of the salt and pepper and 1/2 the cheese. Repeat this one more time: macaroni, salt and pepper and cheese, and then pour the reserved sauce over all. Top off with small pats of butter to taste.
