For an extra creamy texture, use a blend of cheeses such as Gruyere or Monterey Jack along with the Cheddar. Add a crispy topping by mixing breadcrumbs with melted butter and sprinkling it over the macaroni before baking. To prevent the macaroni from drying out during baking, cover the dish with foil for the first 20 minutes, then remove the foil to brown the top.
