Time 1h10m

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 stick unsalted butter, plus more for pie plates
1 cup panko breadcrumbs
5 cups whole milk
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
4 cups grated sharp cheddar cheese (10 ounces)

1 1/2 cups grated fontina cheese (4 ounces)
Coarse salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon paprika
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 pound elbow macaroni

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Butter 10 mini (1 cup) pie plates or a 9-by-13-inch baking dish. Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add breadcrumbs, and toast, stirring occasionally, until golden brown, about 5 minutes.

1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Butter a shallow 4-quart baking dish (oval or 9-by-13-inch rectangle); set aside.
