MINI MAC CANAPES
Think of this recipe as a formula rather than a singular dish. You can vary the cheeses, add herbs or spices and personalize it in any way you wish. What makes these delectable two bite canapes stick together is a very thick sauce and an egg yolk. This is great finger food. Source: unknown

Bring to a boil whisking frequently. Reduce heat to low and simmer sauce for 2 minutes. Add the cheese to the sauce by 1/2 cup measures, stirring til cheese melts before making another addition. Pour sauce over pasta and stir well.
