Penne with Five Cheeses

Penne with Five Cheeses


Ingredients
  • 1 14-ounce can crushed tomatoes
  • 2 cups heavy cream
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • ½ cup freshly grated Pecorino Romano
  • ½ cup shredded fontina
  • ¼ cup crumbled goat cheese
  • ¼ cup ricotta cheese
  • 10 fresh basil leaves, roughly chopped
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • ½ teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • ½ teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper
  • 1 pound penne pasta
  • 4 tablespoons butter
  • 4 ounces burrata cheese, torn into pieces (optional)

Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 475 degrees F.
  2. Bring a large pot of water to a boil.
  3. Combine all the first 11 ingredients in a large mixing bowl and combine.
  4. Cook the penne for 5 minutes until al dente. It will still be super al dente, but not to fear, it will continue to cook in the cheese mixture while baking. Drain the pasta and add to the ingredients in the mixing bowl, tossing to combine.
  5. Transfer the pasta into a large baking dish. Dot with the butter and bake until bubbly and brown on top, about 10-15 minutes. Once you take it out of the oven, top it with the burrata cheese if you're using. Let sit for 10 minutes before serving.
