Method
Preparation
Cook the Pasta
In a large pot, bring salted water to a boil. Add the elbow macaroni and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
Cheese Sauce
Add Milk
Slowly pour in the milk while whisking to avoid lumps. Continue to cook, stirring frequently, until the mixture thickens, about 5-7 minutes.
Incorporate the Cheese
Reduce the heat to low and gradually stir in the cheddar and Monterey Jack cheese until fully melted and smooth.
Combining
Mix Pasta with Sauce
Add the cooked elbow macaroni to the cheese sauce and stir until the pasta is fully coated.
Baking (Optional)
Prepare for Baking
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). If desired, pour the mac and cheese into a greased baking dish.
Add Toppings
In a small bowl, mix breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, and paprika. Sprinkle the mixture evenly over the mac and cheese.
Bake
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the top is golden and crispy.
