Steps:
- Make bread crumbs:
- Heat butter and oil in a 10-inch heavy skillet over moderate heat until foam subsides, then cook garlic and bread crumbs, stirring, until crumbs are golden. Transfer to paper towels to drain and season with salt.
- Make macaroni:
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Chop chipotles.
- Melt butter in a 3- to 4-quart saucepan over moderate heat, then add flour and cook, whisking, 1 minute. Gradually whisk in milk, cream, and mustard and simmer, whisking occasionally, 3 minutes.
- Cook macaroni in a 6- to 7-quart pot of boiling salted water until just tender. Drain in a colander and transfer to a large bowl. Stir in white sauce, cheese, and salt to taste.
- Fill a 1 1/2-quart shallow casserole with half of macaroni mixture. Stir chipotles into remaining macaroni. Spoon into another 1 1/2-quart shallow casserole and sprinkle both with bread crumbs. Bake casseroles in middle of oven 30 minutes, or until bubbly.

[email protected]The concept of this dish is great, but the execution was lacking. The macaroni and cheese was watery and the garlic bread crumbs were soggy. I think this recipe needs some tweaking.

[email protected]Meh. I wasn't impressed with this recipe. The macaroni and cheese was bland and the garlic bread crumbs didn't add much flavor. I won't be making this again.
