1 cup macaroni noodles, uncooked
1 cup 10% cream
1/2 cup water
1 tbsp cornstarch
1 tbsp minced garlic
1 tsp onion powder
1/2 tsp pepper
1/2 tsp salt
1 cup marble cheese, grated
2 tbsp margarine or butter
1/3 cup real bacon bits
8 wieners
8 hot dog buns, top-sliced

Bring a pot of water to a boil for the macaroni. Heat a frying pan on medium for the wieners. Boil the macaroni until slightly tender, about 8 minutes, and drain. While the macaroni is cooking, slice the wieners about half way through lengthwise and fry with a tbsp of margarine. Bring the cream to a boil in a medium saucepan. Add the cornstarch to the cold water and stir until dissolved. Pour the cornstarch and water into the boiling cream and whisk until well combined. Reduce heat to simmer and add garlic, onion powder, pepper and salt. Heat a nonstick fry pan on med-low for toasting the buns. Add cheese, bacon bits and margarine to the sauce mixture. Stir until cheese is melted and reduce heat to low. Add macaroni noodles to the sauce and stir. Toast buns in heated pan. Place a wiener in each of the toasted buns and top with some macaroni and cheese.
