For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a pinch of nutmeg or a dash of hot sauce to the cheese sauce. Feel free to experiment with different types of cheese, such as cheddar, Gruyere, or Monterey Jack, to create your own signature mac and cheese. Grated cheese melts better if it's at room temperature. To avoid the pasta from sticking together, make sure to keep stirring it while cooking.

Follow The Directions
01
StepIn a medium skillet over medium-high heat, add the dry macaroni. Pour in enough water to barely cover the pasta. Bring to a rolling boil, stirring frequently to prevent sticking. (2 minutes)
02
StepContinue to cook, stirring often, until the water is almost entirely evaporated and the macaroni is tender yet firm to the bite. This should take approximately 8 minutes.
03
StepPour in the evaporated milk and heavy cream, stirring to combine. Add the grated Colby cheese and continue stirring until the cheese is completely melted and the sauce is smooth and creamy. (3 minutes)
04
StepServe immediately and enjoy the rich, cheesy goodness!
