Cheesy goodness... true comfort food. I updated this recipe based on the review. The cheese sauce is cheesier and there is more of it. This time when I made it, I used 1/2 cup of gorgonzola, but the taste was a little too sharp for my liking. I also added in some garlic powder. Please let me know how the current measurements work out.

[email protected]Not my favorite mac and cheese recipe. The cheese sauce was too thick and the pasta was too soft. I won't be making this again.
