I can always count on Nigella for something yummy and indulgent. I was instantly drawn to her Macaroni Cheese De Luxe. I was raised on Kraft Macaroni and Cheese and have found that there was something comforting about the florescent orange tone of the powder cheese and noodles. Nigella offered a make ahead option which I gladly took so that I wouldn't be rushed on the day of the party.
As I strolled through the supermarket there were 3 cheeses the recipe requested. I spent a good portion in the cheese section deciding on what cheeses to use (sharp cheddar, emmental and parmesan). I bought shredded parmesan (I can't handle the smell of parmesan, childhood trauma). Be warned this recipe makes two huge trays. I split it in 2 for 2 separate parties and froze them. What came out was exactly what I expect from Nigella: yummy, warm, indulgent cheesy goodness. It looked as good as it tasted.
Later that night after the kitchen was clean and I was tucked in bed I imagined sneaking down into the kitchen late at night to grab a bite of this decadent treat just like Nigella. Lucky for my waistline I was too exhausted to get out of bed. A+
