So, we are having homemade mac 'n cheese for dinner tonight. The recipe I usually make has a cornbread topping, which I had just enough leftovers of from last night, but DH took it for lunch. Grrrrrr. So I am thinking of trying out a new recipe instead. Please share your tried and true recipes!

*
2 lbs pasta (I like cavatappi)
6 tbs each butter and flour
3 cups milk
4 oz mascarpone cheese
1 tsp white truffle oil
1/4 cup parmesan reggiano, grated
8 oz gruyere (I like Boar's Head hickory smoked), grated
12 oz smoked gouda, grated
>make a roux, then add milk, bring to a boil. Then lower heat and simmer until thickened, about 5 minutes, stirring to avoid lumps
>when milk mix has thickened, add oil and mascarpone cheese
>then add gruyere, gouda and parmesan, removing from heat as soon as it's melted.
>season with salt and pepper, add cooked pasta. Once it is well incorporated, put into a baking dish and bake at 350 for 35-40 minutes. I also like to sprinkle black pepper all over the top prior to baking.
