World's Best Mac & Cheese

Directions
- 1Salt your pasta water and cook a box of elbow macaroni until perfect al dente, then strain and set it to the side.
- 2Into a separate pan over medium heat, melt two tablespoons butter and one tablespoon flour.
- 3Whisk until it turns golden brown and add one cup whole milk and a half cup heavy cream.
- 4Once that thickens and begins to bubble, turn off the heat and add two cups sharp cheddar and a half cup gruyere cheese, both of which you should grate on your own.
- 5Once nice and silky smooth, season with smoked paprika, mustard powder, salt, and fresh cracked pepper.
