This smoked Gouda mac and cheese is marvelously smooth with a bit of a bite. My family loves it. I got the idea from a recipe made on a popular cooking show and adapted it to my own tastes. Serve with a sweeter main dish for a delicious contrast.

Original recipe (1X) yields 8 servings

1 (12 ounce) package shell pasta
2 ½ tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 ½ cups milk
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon ground white pepper
4 ounces smoked Gouda cheese, shredded

Directions

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Lightly grease a casserole dish.
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add shell pasta and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 9 minutes.
While the pasta is cooking, melt butter in a small saucepan over medium-low heat. Whisk in flour and stir until mixture becomes paste-like and light golden brown, 2 to 4 minutes. Gradually whisk in milk, salt, and pepper, then bring to a simmer over medium heat. Gradually whisk in shredded cheese; cook, whisking constantly, until sauce is smooth and thick enough to coat the back of a spoon, 5 to 10 minutes.
Drain pasta and transfer to a large bowl. Pour cheese sauce over top and mix until thoroughly combined. Transfer to the prepared casserole dish.
Bake in the preheated oven until heated through, about 15 minutes.
