Ingredients

  • cups .5 oz. macaroni uncooked
  • cups .5 oz. macaroni uncooked
  • 12 ounces lobster tail pieces fully cooked
  • 0.3 cup butter 
  • 0.3 cup flour 
  • cups milk room temperature
  • cups cheese shredded white
  • 0.3 cup truffle oil white (optional - but why the hell not?)
  • 0.5 cup breadcrumbs fresh
  • 0.5 cup parmesan cheese grated

Equipment

  • sauce pan
  • whisk

Directions

  1. Cook the macaroni according to package directions; drain. Start the cheese sauce by making a roux: Melt the butter in a heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium-low heat. When melted and foamy, add the flour and whisk together to form a paste.
  2. Add 1 cup of milk; continue to whisk until mixture is blended and creamy. Start adding the cheese 1 cup at a time, stirring constantly. As the cheese melts, continue to add remaining milk and cheese in 1-cup increments. If the cheese sauce seems too thick for your liking, you can add in more milk as desired - just use small increments and keep stirring.
  3. Add the white truffle oil once all the cheese and milk have been incorporated. Once the cheese sauce is fully melted
