Baked Penne with Three Cheeses

Category: Baked

6 tablespoons unsalted butter
6 tablespoons all-purpose flour
4 cups milk
1 1/2 cups Fontina cheese, shredded
1/2 pound Gorgonzola cheese, in pieces
1 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
3/4 pound uncooked penne pasta
1/2 cup fresh bread crumbs

Instructions
In large saucepan over medium heat, melt butter. Whisk in flour and cook, stirring constantly, for 2 minutes; do not brown. Gradually whisk in milk and cook, stirring constantly, until sauce is smooth and thickened, about 5 minutes. Add the Fontina, Gorgonzola and Parmesan and stir until cheeses melt. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Remove from heat; set aside.

Preheat an oven to 375 degrees F. Oil a shallow 2 1/2-quart baking dish.

Fill a large pot three-fourths full with water, salt it lightly and bring to a boil over high heat. Add pasta and cook until al dente, 10-12 minutes. Drain and add to sauce. Toss gently. Transfer pasta and sauce to prepared dish. Sprinkle top evenly with bread crumbs.

Bake until top is golden and sauce is bubbling, 25-30 minutes. Let cool for 5 minutes, then spoon into warmed bowls and serve.
Serves 4.
