white mac and cheese recipe with heavy cream

(I also like adding a bit of mustard powder and chili powder, or even chopped jalapeños, but I got in trouble the last time I did that.)

Experiment and make this recipe your own. Italian seasoning, cajun seasoning, seasoning salt, garlic powder, etc – my daughter would probably go crazy for a ranch mac and cheese.

I just use white pepper, salt and paprika to simply season this mac and cheese but you can incorporate any favorite seasoning blend to really play with the flavors. I will warn you though – once you’ve served this decadent mac and cheese to your family, they may no longer accept any blue box shortcuts. Yes, it takes a little longer to prepare than that little blue box, but it’s well worth the extra baking time and cheese shredding. This baked mac and cheese recipe is comfort food perfection and incredibly easy to whip up. Maybe even two.Īnd there is nothing more disappointing than when a gorgeous mac and cheese turns out to be lacklustre in flavor, or the cheese sauce is too slippery to really coat the noodles.

I could give or take most pasta recipes, but a creamy baked mac and cheese with a thick cheese sauce and crunchy, golden baked cheese topping? I’m going in for a giant scoop, every time.
