As I surfed the internet, I found this recipe Well, this dish is kind of those meals that only served by high end restaurants so I said to myself "I am poor to eat at those restaurants, but why don't I give it a try cooking by my self" Well, here it is, this is the Macaroni and Brie with Crab Yep, you'll be amazed how awesome this dish is.

Ingredients:

• 8 ounces macaroni pasta
• 8 ounces Brie cheese, rind removed and cut into cubes
• 1 cup lump crabmeat, picked over for shells
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 2 cups milk
• 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1/4 teaspoon paprika
• Salt and pepper to taste
• 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Instructions:

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 2-quart baking dish and set aside.
2. Cook the macaroni pasta according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
3. In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Once melted, whisk in the flour to create a roux. Cook the roux for 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly, until it turns a light golden brown.
4. Gradually whisk in the milk, making sure to whisk out any lumps. Cook the sauce, stirring constantly, until it thickens, about 5 minutes.
5. Stir in the garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.
6. Add the Brie cheese cubes to the sauce, stirring until the cheese is melted and the sauce is smooth.
7. Gently fold in the cooked macaroni pasta and lump crabmeat until evenly coated with the cheese sauce.
8. Transfer the macaroni and cheese mixture to the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese over the top.
9. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown on top.
10. Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving.
11. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley, if desired, and serve hot.
