This mac and cheese was indeed excellent!! It is very heavy and takes alot of cheese so I cut
back on the amount of cheese Paula called for such as 1 pakg of cream cheese and 1 pkg of
cheddar cheese......... my son and I loved it! Go ahead and prepare with the receipe as it calls for
and then you can change the cheese.
Be sure you excersize a whole bunch the next day!!! yum, yum!!

This was the most outrageously expensive recipe I've ever made. I used the real thing on both the Parm ($17.99 per pound and the Smoked Cheddar ($8.99 a pound, The Heavy Cream and cream cheese, easily put this five servings well over $20. On top of that, it was too thick. I'd give this a minus star if I could.

This recipe is a good start to make your own by the touches you have.
Used peppered bacon. Regular Colby/Jack (not smoked, could add a bit of Liquid Smoke to make your own level of smoke didn't add pimento & added some fine chopped chives, & as others lowered the cream cheese to 1 package, & used Skim milk w/ Half 'n Half, & did add splash of hot sauce. I made this a meal dish by adding some pre-cooked (quick fried 1" chunks with some ground cumin, onion & garlic powder & cayenne pepper mixed into finished macaroni to coat chicken & then baked 350F degrees, 5-10 mins. then broiled as directed...watch your liquid level as noodles keep soaking up liquid so don't be afraid to up your Milk a little to make creamier.

Change up bacon for Canadian Bacon, or replace with some favorite thick diced salami or pepperoni and go Italian with herbs & Mozzarella/Romano cheeses--or go Mexican with ground beef or chirizo sausage & Queso Fresco or good melting Monterey Jack, sky is the limit!

This recipe does make quite a bit. I put mine in a 9 x 13 pan and after 6 of us eating there was 1/3 of it left. My group was not overly fond of this because there was left overs! I don't think I've ever said something had to much cream cheese till this. I would only use 1 8 oz. package of cream cheese if I make this again. I did like the touch of bacon.

I substituted the smokey cheddar for sharp...I don't like the smoke flavor. I also used 1/2 half and half and half milk to lower the calories. This recipe makes a lot more that what was listed. The flavor was a little bland to be honest, but rich with cheesy flavor.

The best mac n cheese our family ever ate! My 18 yo son and his friend along with my husband are tough critics but I watched them wolf it down saying multiple times how good it was! No wonder considering all the delicious cheese and milk products in this recipe! Just know the recipe makes plenty more than 5 1 cup ramekins....I used 3 large gratin dishes and still had plenty left over for the next day,,,the smoked cheddar really adds the flavor to this dish....yummy!
