2. Heat the butter in a pan, once it melts add the flour to it. Cook the flour for just 1 minutes and add the milk. Mix continuously to make sure that there are no lumps. You can use a whisk to do so. The milk will start thickening.
3. Once the milk has thickened, add the ⅓ cup of the processed cheese to it and cook it so that it melts well. Add the cream too. Add the boiled pasta or macaroni to the sauce, season with salt and pepper. At this stage you can add chilli flakes or smoked paprika to make it spicy.
4. Remove it from the flame and add the mozzarella cheese to it.
