Steps

1 Done	Prepare the Macaroni Bring salted water to a boil and add pasta. Prepare it al dente. Drain the pasta in a colander, rinse with cool water, and drain again.
2 Done	Preheat the oven to 375 °F.
3 Done	Prepare the Topping Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a large, oven-proof pan. Add breadcrumbs, and stir until they are golden brown. Transfer to a bowl.
4 Done	Prepare the Sauce Melt ¼ cup of butter in the same pan. Add garlic and saute for approximately a minute. Add flour and continue to cook while whisking for at least 2 minutes. Reduce the heat to low and gradually add 4 cups of milk. Bring to a boil until the sauce begins to thicken.
5 Done	In a separate container, combine cornstarch and the remaining ½ cup of milk. Whisk until mixture is lump-free and stir the sauce until thick. Season with salt and pepper and mix in the bouillon powder.
6 Done	Remove from heat. Add cheddar, ¾ cup of Parmesan cheese, and mozzarella slices. Stir until the cheese has melted. Coat the pasta with the sauce.
7 Done	Top with breadcrumbs and the remaining Parmesan cheese. Broil or grill in the oven for approximately 10–15 minutes, or until bubbling.
8 Done	Allow to cool slightly before serving.

I am an English major with a love of languages and fiction, and with an incurable travel bug. In my free time, I read fantasy, drink copious amounts of coffee, and like to go see movies. Culinary art means everything to me. My main hypostasis is the taster, though. The music school has taught me to appreciate the symphony of airy meringues, to create harmonious overtures of light snacks, hard rock of meat, fish, and vegetables on the grill. Choir classes have accustomed me to hear and feel the people nearby and create perfect harmonies of sounds.
