This dish combines the comforting creaminess of classic mac and cheese with the luxurious flavor of truffle oil. It’s a unique and indulgent twist on a beloved comfort food favorite.

Ingredients:

• elbow macaroni (250g)
• butter (60g)
• all-purpose flour (30g)
• milk (480ml)
• cheddar cheese, grated (200g)
• parmesan cheese, grated (50g)
• truffle oil (15ml)
• salt (to taste)
• black pepper (to taste)

Kitchen Tools:

• pot
• strainer
• whisk
• wooden spoon
• oven

To start, cook the elbow macaroni according to the package instructions. In a separate pot, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the flour and whisk constantly to create a roux. Gradually pour in the milk, whisking until smooth and thickened.

Remove the pot from the heat and stir in the cheddar and parmesan cheese until melted and creamy. Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Add the cooked macaroni to the cheese sauce and stir until well coated.

Transfer the mac and cheese to a baking dish and drizzle truffle oil over the top. Bake in a preheated oven until the top is golden and bubbly.

Once out of the oven, let it sit for a few minutes before serving. The aroma of the truffle oil will fill your kitchen, adding an extra layer of decadence to this already indulgent dish.
