Creamy and cheesy, this four cheese baked mac and cheese taste just like the classic chick-fil-a mac and cheese. The creamy cheese sauce has colby jack cheese, American cheese, and parmesan romano cheese all melted together to form a delicious and creamy cheese sauce. All baked with more shredded cheddar cheese on top. This mac and cheese will make a perfect addition to any main meal.
To make the creamy and cheesy cheese sauce, butter is melted and cooked with flour to brown. Milk, colby jack, American, and parmesan romano cheese is all added to the mixture and cooked for a few minutes, until all of the cheese has fully melted and the sauce is smooth and thickened. Mix the sauce with cooked pasta and spread into a baking dish. Top with shredded cheddar cheese and bake until the cheese has fully melted, and the top has lightly browned.
