We came up with the best Mac & Cheese you have ever tasted!!
Ok..Ok.. We know what all of you are thinking… This has to be the most fattening Mac & Cheese I have ever seen! This is no more fattening than one you get at a restaurant and because it so deliciously rich and cheesy you don’t want to eat a lot of it! This little 8 x 8 pan goes a long way!! When we first tried to come up with the Ultimate Mac & Cheese right away I knew it needed my famous Alfredo sauce. So I started there and then slowly added 3 other cheeses to make it perfection!! Obviously this isn’t something that we make weekly, but for a fancier insanely delicious Mac & Cheese you have to give this a try..!! XOXO
