Creamy Baked Four Cheese Mac and Cheese

Step 1

Cook macaroni pasta as instructed. Drain (do not rinse) and add to a large bowl. Set to the side.

Step 2

While your pasta is cooking, add the butter and minced garlic to a large cooking pan on medium-low heat. Once the butter melts, add the flour. Stir consistently until combined.

Step 3

Pour the chicken stock and heavy whipping into the cooking pan and stir until well blended.

Step 4

Add oregano, ground thyme, garlic powder, sea salt, 8 oz. sharp cheddar cheese, gouda, and white cheddar cheese into the cooking pan. Stir until smooth and creamy. (Using a whisk may help with this step).

Step 5

Pour the cheese sauce over the cooked macaroni. Add the mozzarella cubes to the same bowl. Fold ingredients together.

Step 6

Pour ingredients into a casserole dish and top off with remaining sharp cheddar cheese. Bake for 25 minutes at 350 degrees. Allow to cool, then serve.
