Making Baked Mac and Cheese Bites is easy when you follow these simple steps:

1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a mini muffin tin with cooking spray.
2. Cook Macaroni: Boil the elbow macaroni in salted water according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
3. Make Cheese Sauce: In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Stir in the flour, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, black pepper, and smoked paprika. Cook for about 1 minute until bubbly.
4. Add Milk: Gradually whisk in the milk, continuing to stir until the mixture thickens and bubbles. This should take about 5 minutes.
5. Add Cheeses: Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the cheddar, mozzarella, and Parmesan cheese until melted and smooth.
6. Combine: Add the cooked macaroni to the cheese sauce and mix until well combined.
7. Fill Muffin Tin: Spoon the mac and cheese mixture into the greased mini muffin tin, filling each cup to the top.
8. Add Breadcrumbs: Sprinkle breadcrumbs over each filled cup for added crunch.
9. Bake: Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and crispy.
10. Cool: Remove the muffin tin from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before carefully removing the bites with a fork or toothpick.
