Truffly Mac 'n Cheese

Dinner: Truffle Mac n’ Cheese

Ingredients:

1 (16 ounces) of Corkscrew Macaroni

6 Tablespoons of Butter

½ Cup of Flour

5 ½ Cups of Milk (divided)

6 Cups of Shredded Gold Creek Farms Truffle (Chartufo) Cheddar

1 ½ Cups of Shredded Gold Creek Farms Romano

½ Cup of Panko or Breadcrumbs

½ Tablespoon of Truffle Oil

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter a 9×13 inch baking dish. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook macaroni until cooked but still slightly firm to the bite, about 8 minutes. Drain. Melt butter in a large pot over medium heat. Whisk in flour until the mixture has a thick, paste-like consistency, about 30 seconds. Slowly whisk in 2 cups of milk until smooth. Whisk in remaining milk, increase heat to medium-high, continue letting mixture cook while constantly whisking until mixture has a thick consistency, about 5-10 minutes. Stir in Truffle Cheddar and 1 cup of Romano into mixture until cheese has melted and the sauce is smooth. Fold in macaroni. Pour mixture into prepared baking dish. Stir remaining Romano and Panko in a small bowl. Sprinkle breadcrumb mixture over macaroni mixture and drizzle with truffle oil. Bake until golden brown, about 30 minutes. Cool for at least 10 minutes to ensure mixture has set.
