For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a pinch of nutmeg to the cheese sauce. Feel free to experiment with different types of cheese, such as Gruyere, Monterey Jack, or a blend of cheeses. To make the mac 'n cheese even creamier, use a combination of milk and heavy cream. If you prefer a baked mac 'n cheese, transfer the mixture to a baking dish, top with breadcrumbs, and bake at 375°F (190°C) for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown.
