It needs some adjustments. I didn't put in as much milk, which was good but I forgot to adjust the butter so it's a bit greasy.<br/><br/>Overall though I would make this again, but with more adjustments.

I don't know what went wrong, but this didn't turn out well for me. Even after cooking it the amount of time, it was still very milky and runny.

Very easy and delicious! I cut the milk down to 4 cups and add a dash of truffle oil when it's done. Makes for an impressive side dish.

I have made this 3 times now and it is awesome I changed nothing because it had such rave reviews the first second and third time. I have made it for family and several friends. They all love it.

this was great. I used a whole box of pasta, 3 cups of skim milk and 1 cup fat free half and half to compensate for the reviews that said it was too liquidy. Mine was too dry, but tasted great. Next time I would keep to 5 cups of milk/half and half with an entire box of pasta.
