Drain macaroni and set aside. In a large wide pot over medium-low heat, melt remaining 1/4 cup butter. Sprinkle flour over butter, whisking to incorporate and make a roux.

Reduce to a simmer, while still whisking, and cook until the sauce is thick and is nappe consistency, about 3 minutes.Add Cheddar, remaining Parmesan cheese and remaining RedHot Seasoning, and whisk until completely incorporated.Add the drained macaroni to the pot with the cheese sauce, and stir well to coat. Transfer the macaroni mixture to the buttered baking dish. Evenly sprinkle the topping over the macaroni and bake for 10 to 15 minutes, or until golden and bubbling.
