Super Creamy Mac and Cheese is insanely rich and delicious. One taste and you will be hooked. Whether eaten as a side or a main dish, this is a recipe you will want to make over and over. Three types of cheese give Super Creamy Mac and Cheese a whole lot of cheese flavor.
We have sharp cheddar (can you have mac and cheese without it?), wonderfully melty Monterey Jack, and last but not least – Velveeta.
I’m not a huge fan of Velveeta but there’s no question it gives mac and cheese a wonderfully creamy texture.
Wonderfully cheesy and totally indulgent.
Life should have more mac and cheese.

I also added Smoked Gouda, probably almost a cup of 2% milk, some smoked paprika and a little cayenne pepper. Came out delicious.
My grown children and my grandkids love this recipe! I only had penne pasta one time, still good.
It is good. It does need more pepper though and maybe a little more cream and cheese since mine came out kinda of dry
