This was the worst mostaccioli I've ever had. The pasta was mushy and the cheese sauce was watery. I would not recommend this recipe to anyone.

I followed the recipe exactly and the mostaccioli turned out great. The cheese sauce was a little too thick for my liking, but that's an easy fix. Overall, I'm very happy with this recipe.
