Triple cheddar mac and cheese

Directions

1. Cook the pasta according to package instructions. Drain and reserve in a colander.
2. In a large saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the flour and onion, stir, and cook for 3 minutes, stirring frequently.
3. Meanwhile, heat the milk and cream with the bay leaves in a small saucepan or in the microwave until steaming.
4. Gradually whisk the heated milk into the flour mixture. Add nutmeg, paprika, garlic powder, and salt. Increase heat to high and bring to a low boil, stirring constantly to prevent sticking or burning, about 5 minutes.
5. Remove from heat and stir in all but a handful of Saputo Triple Cheddar Shreds until incorporated. Add the pasta and the reserved handful of cheese, stirring until noodles are fully coated. Serve immediately.
