MACARONI AND CHEESE CARBONARA
The best parts of the traditional Italian dish Spaghetti Carbonara are found in this baked mac and cheese: richness from the bacon, creaminess from grated cheese and spice from the black pepper.

Steps:
- Set an oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the macaroni and cook until it is al dente, about 6 minutes. Strain, reserving 1 3/4 cups of the pasta water. Set aside.
- Cook the bacon in a large saucepan over medium heat until it is crispy and most of the fat has been rendered, about 15 minutes. Transfer the bacon to a paper-towel-lined plate. Pour the fat into a small heat-safe measuring cup. Add enough olive oil to total 1/4 cup of fat. Reserve.
- Carefully wipe out the saucepan (or give it a quick rinse if it is really dirty). Add the half-and-half and 2 teaspoons pepper and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Cook until reduced to 1 1/2 cups, about 15 minutes. Add the cream cheese and stir until melted. Whisk in the Cheddar and Gruyere until all the cheese is melted and the sauce is smooth.
- Add the macaroni and the reserved pasta water to the saucepan and stir to combine. (It will look very loose, but the pasta will suck up a lot of the sauce as it bakes.) Season to taste with salt if needed. Gently fold in the bacon and 3/4 of the sliced scallions. Pour into a 13-by-9-inch baking dish.
- Toss the bread crumbs with the reserved bacon-fat mixture and a pinch of salt in a medium bowl. Sprinkle the mixture evenly over the top of the macaroni and cheese and bake until the cheese is bubbly and the bread crumbs are lightly browned and crispy, about 10 minutes. Garnish with the remaining scallions and serve.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Butter the bottom and sides of a 3 quart baking dish and set aside.
- Heat the oil in a large saute pan over medium heat. Add the pancetta and cook until golden brown on all sides. Remove with a slotted spoon to a plate lined with paper towels.
- Add the garlic to the pan and cook until lightly golden brown. Whisk in the flour and cook for 1 to 2 minutes. Whisk in 6 cups of the hot milk, increase the heat to high and cook, whisking constantly until thickened, 3 to 5 minutes. Whisk in the eggs until incorporated and let cook for 1 to 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and whisk in the thyme, cayenne, and all of the cheese until completely melted, season with salt and pepper. If the mixture appears too thick, add some of the remaining milk 1/4 cup at a time.
- Place the cooked macaroni in a large bowl, add the cheese sauce, reserved pancetta and parsley and stir until combined. Transfer the mixture to the prepared pan. Combine together additional Asiago, Cheddars, Fontina, and Parmesan in a bowl and sprinkle evenly over the top of the macaroni. Bake in the oven until heated through and the top is lightly golden brown, 12 to 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and let rest 10 minutes before serving.

MACARONI CARBONARA SUPREME!
This is one of my favorite recipes for a macaroni casserole, it's even good enough to serve to guests. I most always add in about 1-1/2 cups frozen peas. This casserole makes enough to serve 8 people, to serve more just double and make in two separate dishes. I have used different cheeses in the past, but I strongly advise you to use only Fontina cheese for this casserole.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 300 degrees. Season panko with a pinch of salt, spread evenly on a baking sheet, and toast until golden brown, 15-20 minutes. Set aside to cool.
- Bring a large pot of generously salted water to a boil. Meanwhile, add bacon to a large skillet over medium heat and cook, 12-15 minutes, until the bacon is crisp and the fat has rendered completely. When water is boiling, add macaroni to pot and cook until al dente, according to package directions. Drain and set aside. When bacon is cooked, remove from the skillet with a slotted spoon and transfer to a paper towel-lined plate.
- Meanwhile, pour off bacon fat from pan, leaving about ¼ Celsius behind, and return to heat. Crack fresh black pepper into bacon fat and toast, about 30 seconds, then whisk heavy cream into pan. Allow the cream to reduce by half, about 3 minutes, then whisk cheese into the sauce until well combined. Return bacon to pan and season to taste with salt. Stir in macaroni.
- Remove from heat and immediately stir in egg yolks and truffle paste until thoroughly combined. Serve garnished with grated cheese, toasted breadcrumbs, and minced chives.
MACARONI AND CHEESE CARBONARA
Rich, creamy, warm and comforting. This blockbuster has lots of cheese, enough to swirl throughout the creamy sauce, which in turn oozes through every tube of pasta. Topped with crisp breadcrumbs, the crunchy-creamy contrast is just unbeatable.
