While cavatappi cooks, peel, then mince garlic. Heat a large non-stick pan over medium heat. When hot, add 2 tbsp butter, then garlic. Cook, stirring often, until fragrant, 2-3 min. Sprinkle flour over top. Cook, stirring often, until toasted, 1 min.

Finish cheese sauce

Add milk to the pan with butter and flour. Cook, stirring often, until sauce thickens slightly, 1-2 min. Slowly add cheese, stirring constantly, until combined, 1 min. Remove the pan from the heat.

Set aside.

Finish and serve
