DECADENT BAKED MAC AND CHEESE
This is a rendition of a macaroni and cheese dish a local restaurant makes. It's so rich and decadent I only make it once per year. It's not a "dieter's friend". You can use any pasta shape you like.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
- Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add penne and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 11 minutes.
- Meanwhile, melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir in cream, half-and-half, and garlic salt. Add Gruyere cheese, 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese, Parmesan cheese, and Oaxaca cheese. Stir into cream until melted. Drain pasta and add to the sauce; stir to coat.
- Spray a casserole dish with cooking spray and pour in pasta mixture. Sprinkle with remaining 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese.
- Bake in the preheated oven until cheese is bubbly and slightly browned, 15 to 20 minutes.

[email protected]I'm not a big fan of mac and cheese, but this recipe was actually pretty good. The cheese sauce was creamy and flavorful, and the breadcrumb topping added a nice crunch. I would definitely make this again.

[email protected]This baked mac and cheese was just okay. It was a bit too dry for my taste and the cheese sauce wasn't very flavorful. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.
