Steps:
- 1. Prep: In large bowl, mix colby, cheddar, and monterey jack cheeses together. Reserve 2 cups. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- 2. Bring water to boil in large pot. Add pasta and return to boil for 8-12 minutes until al dente consistency. Drain. (Helpful tip: I find that if I add a splash of olive oil to the pot right before I add the pasta it helps keep the pasta from sticking.)
- 3. While pasta is boiling, heat butter and 1 can evaporated milk (or 3/4 cup of buttermilk) till hot. Slowly add cream cheese until creamy.
- 4. Alternate adding cheese mix and remaining milk until cheese is melted and smooth. (Please note: you may not use all of the milk. I don't know why, but sometimes I need all of it, and sometimes I have some left over.)
- 5. In large bowl or pot, combine and stir the drained pasta, cheese sauce, and pepper (and onion powder if using.) Spread into large baking dish.
- 6. Sprinkle reserved cheese on top of macaroni mixture, and bake for 15 minutes until melted.
