Description
This Skillet Gnocchi Mac and Cheese is a delightful twist on the classic mac and cheese recipe. Incorporating gnocchi instead of traditional macaroni, each bite is a delightful blend of cheesy goodness and soft, pillowy gnocchi. A crust of golden Parmesan tops the dish, creating a satisfying crunch that contrasts the creamy interior.
