2 cups milk
1/4 cup grated Parmesan

Steps:

Cook the macaroni in plenty of salted water until al dente, about 8 minutes. Drain and cool. Mix together the prosciutto, cream, milk, Parmesan and nutmeg. Add the macaroni and season to taste with salt and pepper. Spoon into a 11- by 7 1/2-inch baking dish. Sprinkle grated Swiss cheese over the top.
