Cheese Sauce:
* 1 pint half & half
* 32 oz block velveeta cheese
* 1 cup water
* 2 tsp kosher salt
* 1 tsp black pepper
* 1 tsp garlic powder
* 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese pvt_selection 

Instructions
1. Cook the Pasta:
Cook elbow macaroni according to package directions (or your preferred doneness). Drain and set aside.
2. Make the Cheese Sauce:
In a large pot over low heat, add water, half & half, Velveeta, shredded cheddar, and seasonings.
Heat slowly, stirring occasionally, until everything is fully melted and smooth.
Do NOT  let it boil—keeping it on low prevents scorching.
3. Assemble the Mac & Cheese:
Mix half of the cheese sauce into the cooked pasta.
In a baking dish, spread half the macaroni, then layer with mozzarella, cheddar, and a drizzle of the reserved cheese sauce.
Add the second layer of pasta, more shredded cheeses, and more sauce.
4. Add Toppings & Bake:
Top with pepperoni slices and a drizzle of hot honey.
Bake at 350°F for 15 minutes, then broil 2–3 minutes until the top is golden and lightly crisp.
5. Serve:
Finish with another drizzle of hot honey. Serve immediately and enjoy that sweet-spicy-cheesy goodness. 🔥🧀🍯
