Reduce the heat to low and add the shredded cheddar, mozzarella, and Parmesan cheese to the sauce. Stir until the cheese is completely melted and the sauce is silky.
Combine the cooked macaroni with the cheese sauce, stirring until the pasta is well coated.
Transfer the macaroni and cheese to a greased 9x13 inch baking dish.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until bubbly and golden on top.
