We simply can’t get enough of Dolly Parton and the country superstar continues to deliver. The singer, actress, philanthropist, and — considering all of her products on the market right now — savvy businesswoman seems to be busier than ever launching new products and collaborations.

There's her collaboration with Krispy Kreme, featuring her favorite Southern treats in doughnut form. Plus, her new Lodge collection with Dolly-inspired designs on the brand's iconic cast-iron skillets. You can even find Dolly partyware while wandering the party aisle at Walmart.

For those who like to bake, Dolly also has a sweet collaboration with Duncan Hines, lending her name and culinary prowess to boxed baking mixes for cakes, cookies, muffins, and more. Her latest product is taking that partnership with Duncan's parent company in a new, savory direction.

Dolly’s newest grocery item is a classic comfort food: frozen macaroni and cheese. Her version is party-sized, weighing a hefty 4 pounds, 12 ounces, and meant to feed about nine people. The box is in the same bright pink as her baking mixes and has the instantly recognizable drawing of Dolly in all her glorious Dolly-ness (big blonde wig, wide smile). It won't be hard to spot in the freezer aisle at most major supermarkets.

Of course, nothing beats homemade mac and cheese, but if you’re looking for something you just put in the oven and bake—especially if you’re feeding a lot of people—Dolly now has you covered. All you have to do is pop the tray of cheddar mac and cheese in the oven at 400 degrees F and let it bake for 60 minutes.

What to Serve With Dolly Parton’s Mac and Cheese

There are times when we’ve all eaten mac and cheese as a complete meal. It’s creamy, delicious, comforting, and so filling. But, if you want something to accompany Dolly’s cheesy pasta dish, she recommends fried apples. Our recipe takes just 20 minutes, which can be done while the mac and cheese is baking.

We’re already imagining the aroma of mac and cheese baking in the oven and the sweet smell of apples frying on the stovetop. All followed by a slice of Dolly's favorite chocolate cake, of course.
