While the pasta is cooking, in a medium bowl, whisk together eggs and evaporated milk. In a separate bowl, mix together cheese and cornstarch.

In a large pot over low heat, melt butter then add black pepper. Cook pepper until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add drained macaroni and stir until pasta is well coated.
