Try macaroni in a luxurious, silky sauce made with three types of cheese (cheddar, cream cheese, and American cheese), added in equal parts. White pepper and mustard powder add a subtle piquant note, while white wine adds a more complex flavor. If you don't have white wine on hand, add a little lemon zest.
