This Ultimate Cheesy Baked Mac & Cheese is a creamy, gooey comfort dish loaded with flavor. The base begins with butter and garlic, then layers in heavy cream, multiple cheeses including gouda, fontina, cheddar, mozzarella, asiago, Parmesan, and Velveeta. After combining the pasta with the rich cheese sauce and a splash of pasta water, it’s baked until bubbly and golden. This is the mac & cheese of your dreams—decadent, rich, and unforgettable.
