    In a large pot of salted boiling water, cook the macaroni pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

    Make the Cheese Sauce

    In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Whisk in the flour and cook for about 1 minute until golden. Gradually add the milk, whisking continuously until the mixture is smooth and thickened.

  3. 3

    Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the smoked Gouda and sharp cheddar cheese until melted. Add garlic powder, onion powder, salt, black pepper, and paprika, stirring until well combined.

    Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Transfer the mac and cheese mixture into a greased baking dish and sprinkle breadcrumbs on top.
