Ingredients
- 1, 8-ounce box pasta shells

Method
Bring a large pot of water to a boil over high heat. Cook pasta to package instructions. Drain and set aside.
Return the same pot you boiled the pasta to medium-low heat. Melt butter, then add milk and cream cheese. Slowly whisk until cream cheese is melted and fully incorporated, about 5 minutes, being sure not to scald the milk.
Once milk mixture is smooth, whisk in the shredded The Creamery cheese. Whisk until fully combined and melted, about 2–3 minutes.
Once smooth, remove from heat and stir in cooked pasta shells.
Serve immediately. Top servings with crushed jalapeno kettle chips if using.
