Method

Pasta Preparation

1

Cook the Pasta

In a large pot, bring water to a boil. Add the elbow macaroni and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

Cheese Sauce Preparation

2

Make the Roux

In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Once melted, whisk in the all-purpose flour and cook for about 1 minute until it forms a paste.

3

Add Milk

Gradually add the milk while whisking continuously to avoid lumps. Cook until the mixture thickens, about 3-5 minutes.

4

Incorporate Cheeses

Reduce heat to low and add the shredded cheddar cheese and cream cheese. Stir until completely melted and smooth.

5

Season the Sauce

Add salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Mix well to combine all flavors.

Combine and Bake

6

Mix Pasta and Sauce

In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked macaroni with the cheese sauce, stirring to ensure all pasta is coated evenly.

7

Prepare Topping

In a small bowl, mix together the bread crumbs, grated parmesan cheese, and olive oil until the crumbs are well coated.

8

Assemble and Bake

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Transfer the macaroni and cheese mixture to a baking dish and evenly sprinkle the topping over it. Bake for 20-25 minutes until the topping is golden brown.
