Seeking Macaroni & Cheese Recipe

[bewitched]

And mmmm...here's an easy mac and blue cheese recipe from my one of my Bon Appetit cookbook (from someplace called The Blue Onion Bistro in Seattle) :

1 pound spiral tube-shaped pasta
2 tablespoons (1/4 stick) butter
1/4 cup all purpose flour
2 cups whole milk
1 cup whipping cream
3 cups grated cheddar cheese
1 1/2 cups crumbled blue cheese
1 tablespoon minced fresh chives



Preheat oven to 350°F.

Butter 13x9x2-inch glass baking dish.

Cook pasta.

Melt butter in a large saucepan over medium-low heat. Add flour. Cook 1 minute, stirring constantly (do not allow to brown).

Gradually whisk in milk and cream. Simmer until mixture thickens slightly, whisking occasionally, about 3 minutes. Reduce heat to low. Add grated cheddar cheese and 1 cup crumbled blue cheese. Whisk until cheese melts, about 2 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

Add pasta to sauce; stir to coat. Transfer to prepared baking dish. Sprinkle with remaining 1/2 cup blue cheese. Bake until sauce begins to bubble, about 25 minutes. Sprinkle with chives and serve.
