(1 rating)
Definitely not for the faint of heart or anyone watching calories! This mac and cheese is so rich and gooey and oh-my-goodness good. And it has just the right amount of heat. I like to use shell macaroni and I also prefer to cube the cheese because then you get these nice pockets of cheese throughout the dish. And if you don’t like the spice, it’s great without the jalapeños, too. I’ve been toying with the idea adding some chopped bacon. YUM! Enjoy!
