Time 53m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 italian bread, or white bread
¾ stick unsalted butter, softened, plus 3 tablespoons, divided
6 garlic cloves, minced, divided
3 tablespoons fresh parsley, minced, divided
¼ teaspoon McCormick® red pepper flakes, optional
1 ½ teaspoons kosher salt, divided
1 ½ tablespoons olive oil
½ cup grated parmesan cheese, divided, plus 1 tablespoon
1 ½ cups heavy cream
¾ cup shredded low-moisture mozzarella
¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 ½ cups elbow macaroni

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
  • Cut off the top of the boule and reserve. Using a small, sharp knife, cut around the inside of the bread (being careful not to cut through the sides) and scoop out the center. Tear 1 loosely packed cup of the bread's innards into 1-inch pieces, then discard or set aside the rest for another use.
  • In a small bowl, mix together 6 tablespoons softened butter, 3 cloves garlic, 1 tablespoon parsley, the red pepper flakes, if using, and ¼ teaspoon salt.
  • Arrange the bread bowl, top of the boule, and the torn bread on a baking sheet. Spread the compound butter over the inside of the top of the boule and all over the inside of the bread bowl.
  • Bake for 12-14 minutes, until the bread bowl is golden brown around the edges and the torn bread is dry and beginning to brown.
  • Transfer the torn, toasted bread to a food processor and process into coarse crumbs. You should have about ½ cup of bread crumbs.
  • In a medium pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat until shimmering. Add the bread crumbs and toast, stirring occasionally, until golden brown, 3-4 minutes.
  • Transfer the toasted bread crumbs to a medium bowl and add 1 tablespoon grated Parmesan cheese, 1 tablespoon parsley, and ¼ teaspoon kosher salt. Stir to combine.
  • Wipe out the pot, then return to the stove over medium heat and add the remaining 3 tablespoons butter. When the butter is melted and bubbling, add the remaining 3 cloves garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes, until fragrant.
  • Add the heavy cream and cook until simmering and reduced slightly, stirring occasionally to prevent burning, 4-5 minutes. Add the remaining ½ cup Parmesan and the mozzarella cheese and stir until the cheese is fully melted and creamy and the sauce has thickened, 5-6 minutes. Season with the remaining teaspoon of salt and the pepper.
  • Fold in the cooked elbow macaroni until well coated.
  • Set the bread bowl on a clean baking sheet. Transfer the macaroni to the bread bowl and top with the bread crumbs.
  • Bake for 5 minutes, until warmed through and set.
  • Top with the remaining tablespoon of parsley and serve immediately with the toasted top of the boule.
  • Enjoy!

Time 30m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

½ stick unsalted butter
3 tablespoons all purpose flour
¾ teaspoon kosher salt
½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 cup whole milk
1 cup heavy cream
2 ¼ cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese
1 lb elbow macaroni, cooked according to package instructions until al dente and drained, not cooled
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
¼ teaspoon kosher salt
¼ teaspoon garlic powder
¼ teaspoon smoked paprika
½ cup panko breadcrumbs

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
  • In a large pot, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the flour, salt, and pepper and whisk until smooth and bubbling, about 1-2 minutes.
  • Slowly pour in the milk and heavy cream, whisking constantly, until smooth. Continue whisking until the sauce thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon, 4-5 minutes. Add the cheddar cheese and stir until melted and the sauce is creamy.

  • Sprinkle the bread crumb topping evenly over the mac and cheese.
  • Bake the mac and cheese for 10-15 minutes, or until the topping is browned (if the top isn't browning, broil on high for 2-3 minutes).
  • Let rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients for the best flavor. Fresh garlic, sharp cheddar cheese, and a flavorful bread bowl are key.
  • Don't overcook the macaroni. It should be al dente, with a slight bite to it.
  • Make sure the cheese sauce is thick and creamy. If it's too thin, it won't hold its shape in the bread bowl.
  • Let the mac and cheese cool slightly before serving. This will help prevent it from spilling out of the bread bowl.
  • For a crispy bread bowl, brush the inside with melted butter and garlic powder before baking.

Conclusion:

Mac and cheese garlic bread bowl is a delicious and easy-to-make comfort food. It's perfect for a weeknight dinner or a party. With its creamy cheese sauce, crispy bread bowl, and garlicky flavor, this dish is sure to be a hit.
