Steps:
- To make macaroni and cheese first remove the rind from all the cheeses. Then turn on the oven to 350°F (180°C) and put the water for pasta to boil.
- Next we have to prepare a cream of cheeses, so in a saucepan put the butter and once melted add the flour then stir it to make it like a paste.
- Keep stirring and when the mixture begins to brown (just a little) pour the milk in the same pot, and continue stirring until you get a creamy mixture (this is called bechamel). After done you can add salt, pepper and nutmeg to your personal taste.
- Add a part of the grated cheeses keeping aside a tablespoon of each, then stir until all ingredients are well mixed. Let it cook a few minutes until it's all melted and you have formed cheese sauce.
- Cook the pasta following half of the cooking time written on the package, just a few minutes are enough because the pasta must be very al dente.
- Drain the pasta and bring it back in the same cooking pot so you can add the cheese sauce. Combine the cream of cheeses to the pasta and stir well.
- Now you must butter well a large baking casserole, and you can do this easily with a pastry brush or simply with your fingers. Cover the base and sides of the casserole with enough breadcrumbs.
- Immediately after pour the cheese and pasta in the casserole. Sprinkle the top with an handful of the cheeses that you had previously kept aside.
- The last thing to do is to cook for about 20 minutes at 350°F (180°C), or until the surface has acquired a golden color and the classic crust is formed. Once ready, remove the casserole from the oven and serve these Italian style baked macaroni and cheese piping hot.

Steps:
- Cook pasta according to directions until al dente in salted water.
- Meanwhile, melt 2 tablespoons of the butter in a large oven-safe skillet. Add the flour (2 tablespoons) and stir to coat in the butter, and continue to cook, stirring, for about 1 minute. Gradually pour in the milk (2 cups) and whisk to combine so there are no clumps of flour. Continue heating and whisking until thickened a bit (about 2 minutes). Stir in the mozzarella cheese (8 oz.), half of the parmesan cheese (1/4 cup), and half of the fresh parsley (2 tablespoons). Whisk until fully combined.
- In a small bowl, melt the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter. Add the breadcrumbs (1 cup), the rest of the parmesan (1/4 cup), the rest of the parsley (2 tablespoons), the garlic powder (1 teaspoon), and plenty of black pepper. Stir until breadcrumbs are well-coated in the butter.
- When pasta is done cooking, drain it or use a slotted spoon to transfer it over to the cheese sauce. Stir to coat. It will seem really thick- don't worry, it will thin out as the pasta and any water clinging to it settles in.
- Sprinkle the breadcrumb mixture on top of the pasta and cheese sauce.
- Broil for 5-10 minutes close to the top of the oven, rotating the skillet if necessary and checking to make sure it doesn't burn. Once the breadcrumbs are golden-brown, remove from oven, place a handle cover or towel on the skillet's handle, and serve the mac and cheese sprinkled with more fresh parsley, if desired.
