It’s always awesome.
I just use whatever cheese I have leftover before it gets moldy, and still works great.

Excellent! Only thing I changed is instead of orange sharp cheddar I used Smoked White cheddar. It gave it a delicious Smokey flavor that everyone liked. Delish!

Used 3 different cheddars and it was a little rich for my taste. I might try again with different cheeses and maybe some veggies.

10-19-21. Did not add chili powder, quick and easy, used half 1% milk and half 15% cream, added veggies. Very creamy and delicious

Very very good. I used just 2 more oz of cheese and made it extra creamy. Those who say it isn’t creamy just can’t cook.

A little grainy, but perhaps because I used preshredded cheese that was on hand. Otherwise yummy!

Pretty good, way to saucy. Not super creamy. Didnt really have the consistency of a mac and cheese

I made 8 servings and made it with the pasta (farfalle) cheeses (cheddar, mozzarella, gruyere, asiago), and milk (5 cups 2% + 1 cup whipping cream). I still matched the weights and measurements. Wow! I thought that I would have enough leftover to make some individual servings to freeze as one commenter suggested. Nope! Even my picky eater kid had 2 helpings while husband and my other boy had 3! And the chipotle? Genius! Long story, short - nothing left to freeze!
I am looking forward to trying it with the recommended pasta and cheeses but it seems pretty flexible. Will definitely be making again!

I have made this several time. Always a big hit either main dish or side. I have experimented with a variety of cheeses- choose flavorful, melty cheeses.
