Classic Mac and Cheese
The ultimate American comfort food — creamy three-cheese sauce coating perfectly cooked macaroni. Stirring the cheese in off the heat, once the base sauce has already thickened, keeps the sauce smooth instead of turning grainy and split.
Ingredients

Cook macaroni in salted boiling water until al dente. Drain.
Melt butter in a pot, whisk in flour and cook 1 minute.
Gradually whisk in milk and cream until smooth. Simmer 5 minutes.
