1 lb macaroni ( rotini or other fun shape)
1 lb velveeta cheese, cubed in 1-inch squares
4 oz cream cheese
1/2 cup half-and-half cream
16 oz shredded cheese (pre-packaged mix with 4 or 5 different cheeses, such as asiago, mozarella, jack, romano, parmesan)
1/2 tbsp salt (or more , to taste)
1/2 tsp pepper

Directions:

Prepare macaroni per package instructions.
Drain macaroni well, return to pot while still warm.
Add Velveeta, cream cheese, salt & pepper.
Stir until cheeses are melted, then add cream and stir until a creamy sauce has formed.
Pour 1/2 the macaroni into a non-stick or greased casserole dish.
Sprinkle 8 oz of the shredded cheese on top.
Add the rest of the macaroni and sprinkle another 4 oz of the cheese on top.
Cover casserole (with foil or lid).
Bake at 375 degrees for 30 minutes.
Remove cover, sprinkle remainder of shredded cheese on top and bake an additional 10-15 minutes, until cheese is bubbly and just beginning to brown around the edges.
