Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Cook the Pasta

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

  2. 2

    Prepare the Cheese Sauce

    In a large saucepan over medium heat, combine the fromage blanc and white cheddar cheese. Stir until the cheeses melt and form a creamy sauce. Add the black truffle oil, salt, and black pepper to taste.

  3. 3

    Combine Pasta and Sauce

    Add the cooked orecchiette to the cheese sauce and mix well until the pasta is fully coated.

  4. 4

    Prepare the Breadcrumb Topping

    In a small bowl, combine the breadcrumbs with a drizzle of olive oil and mix until the crumbs are lightly coated.

  5. 5

    Bake the Mac and Cheese

    Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Transfer the mac and cheese mixture to a baking dish, sprinkle the breadcrumb mixture evenly on top, and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and crispy.

  6. 6

    Garnish and Serve

    Remove from the oven, let cool slightly, and garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving.
