Macaroni and Cheese

Name: Macaroni and Cheese
Ingredients: 8 ounces uncooked elbow macaroni (or another pasta shape of your choice); 3 tablespoons butter, divided; 2 tablespoons flour; 2 cups hot milk (see note; I usually use skim milk, but whole tastes better); Salt and pepper to taste; 1/4 - 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional); 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg (optional); 8 ounces grated cheddar cheese (I prefer sharp, but use what you like; if you don’t want to grate the cheddar, you can cube it); 2 – 3 ounces grated Parmesan cheese, divided; Additional grated Parmesan for a garnish (optional)
