This white truffle oil mac and cheese is made with Parmesan and fontina. The truffle oil's intense aroma and earthy flavors tastes delicious.

Ingredients

  • 3 Cups heavy cream
  • 9 Ounces dried short pasta (should yield about 4 1/2 cups cooked pasta)
  • 3 Tablespoons white truffle oil
  • salt (to taste)
  • 8 Ounces fontina cheese (freshly grated)
  • 8 Ounces Parmesan cheese (freshly grated)
  • 3/4 cups panko bread crumbs

Optional

  • chopped fresh rosemary

Directions

Step 1
Put a large pot of water on to boil. Once boiling, add a liberal amount of salt and pasta; cook according to package instruction until al dente. Drain and set aside.
Step 2
While the pasta is boiling, butter a 9 by 13 inch baking dish.
Step 3
In a large saucepan, bring the cream to a boil over medium heat. Once it comes to a boil, cook for an additional 30 seconds.
Step 4
Add the pasta, truffle oil, and salt to the cream, and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes.
Step 5
Add both cheeses and stir until the cheese is just melted. If the consistency seems too thin, just add more cheese. If it seems too thick, add more cream.
Step 6
Pour the pasta mixture into the baking dish. Sprinkle the breadcrumbs evenly over the top.
Step 7
Broil until brown, about 2 minutes.
Step 8
Remove from oven. Top with the fresh rosemary. Serve and enjoy!
