Steps

  1. Melt butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Whisk in flour and cook until light blond color is achieved.
  2. Add remaining ingredients except for macaroni and whipped cream. Bring to a boil until reduced by half. Remove from heat and gently fold in cream.
  3. Place macaroni in the bottom of a 9x13-inch square baking pan. Pour cheese mixture over and bake in a 350°F oven for 25 minutes, or until bubbly on top and puffed up. Remove and serve.
