Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Spray a baking dish with nonstick spray.
  2. Bring water to a boil and prepare pasta according to directions, shaving 1-2 minutes off of the cooking time.
  3. While pasta is boiling, heat butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Once sizzling, add flour and whisk constantly to create a roux, until golden and bubbly, about 2 minutes. Pour in milk and whisk constantly, stirring until the mixture slightly thickens. Reduce heat to low and add in 6 ounces of the fontina, all of the gorgonzola and about 6 ounces of the other blue. Stir until cheese melts and sauce is thick. Taste and season with a bit of salt and pepper if desired.
  4. Add noodles to the baking dish. Pour cheese sauce over top, tossing to coat all the noodles. Sprinkle remaining fontina and blue over top evenly, then cover in breadcrumbs. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until top is golden and crunchy.
