Notes
For a richer flavor, use full-fat milk and cheese.
If you don't have Gruyère cheese, you can substitute Parmesan cheese.
To make this dish ahead of time, prepare the macaroni and cheese mixture according to the instructions above. Refrigerate overnight. Before serving, bake for 20-25 minutes, or until heated through.
This mac and cheese can also be made in a slow cooker. Simply combine all of the ingredients in the slow cooker and cook on low for 4-6 hours, or until the macaroni is tender and the cheese is melted.
