Cavatappi pasta noodles are my fave for Mac & Cheese. General béchamel cheese sauce but with minced onion & garlic cooked into the roux. Half and half infused with bay leaf instead of whole milk. Don’t usually use smoked cheese but by sister loves them and it was her birthday so I added in the smoked gouda. It was a fantastic choice. Leftover pieces of cornbread, baked at 300 for 20 minutes until dry but not burnt, crumbled and toasted in butter before topping. She was a thing of beauty, gone now but not forgotten.
