Ingredients:

Serving

10 tbsp butter (plus extra for the baking dish)
1 1/2 cups small- diced pancetta
1/2 dry baguette
1 lb rotelle pasta
4 cups heavy cream
1 1/2 cups grated parmigiano-reggiano cheese
2 1/2 cups small- diced fontina cheese, cold
kosher salt
fresh ground black pepper

Directions:

Preheat oven to 375°; lightly butter a 13x9 inch baking dish (or 6 individual baking dishes).
Place the pancetta on a baking sheet; bake about 18 minutes or until just crisp; drain off the fat and reserve the pancetta.
Crush the baguette into semifine crumbs (there should be about 1 cup; you may use a food processor).
In a large saute pan over medium heat, melt the 10 tablespoons of butter and toast the crumbs, tossing, 8-10 minutes or until golden brown; set aside.
Bring a large pot of water to a boil over high heat; cook the pasta until al dente (8-10 minutes); drain and place in a large mixing bowl.
In a large saucepan over high heat, bring the heavy cream to a boil; decrease heat to medium and simmer until reduced by a third; it will still be pourable and thin.
Slowly whisk in 1 1/4 cups of the Parm-Regg cheese and all the pancetta; continue reducing until thick.
Add the cream mixture and the fontina to the macaroni in the bowl; toss quickly to mix.
Season to taste with salt and pepper.
Pour the mixture into the prepared dish; top with breadcrumbs and remaining 1/4 cup Parm-Regg.
Bake 15-20 minutes (12-15 minutes for the small dishes), until bubbling and golden.
