WOW! That's, ummm... rich! Right up my alley! I love all the fresh, locally made gourmet cheeses you can get down here.
I'm gonna make that for the clan, but I'll probably add some half cooked bacon or ham before baking. Some shrooms and onions and garlic too if the bro in law won't be around.
Oh, do you use young or mature fontina? I'm guessing young.
Depends on how strong a flavour you want I would guess. Mushrooms and ham would be nice, although I like to just top mac 'n cheese with tomatoes and bread crumbs and enjoy the cheese!
