I made this one tonight...I may have put too much macaroni in it I'm not sure but I had to double the amount of cream and put in another 1/2 cup cheese. It also needed to be seasoned with sea salt and pepper. After that it was delicous!

Very good, but bland. The addition of sea salt and pepper was the touch it needed. Will make it again.
