Bereiding

  1. Boil the pasta

  5. Build the cheese sauce

  6. Melt in the cheese

    • Add half of the shredded cheese in batches, letting each addition melt before adding more.
    • Stir until the sauce is smooth and fully melted.
    Stap 6
  7. Combine pasta and sauce

    • Add the drained pasta to the cheese sauce and mix well so the sauce fills the pasta.
