In a large pot with boiling salted water cook the elbow macaroni until al dente. Drain and set aside. In a 2-quart microwave-safe covered casserole dish, cook the onions and butter or margarine on high for 3 to 4 minutes. Add the cooked and drained pasta, milk, and cubed cheese and stir. Cook for 11 to 12 minutes on high, stirring well after 4, 8, and 11 minutes. The mixture will still be runny at this stage.
This is so the seasonings can penetrate the flavor of the cooked pasta. In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, mustard, sugar, vinegar, sour cream, onion balsamic spread, salt, and pepper. Pour mayonnaise dressing over the macaroni mixture and gently mix to combine. Taste and adjust salt and pepper (if needed) to your taste.
