Your first thought when you saw the word "Mornay" may have been, "that's the actress who was in that Tom Cruise film where he slid around to classic rock?" But no! We'll give you a hint: it's what mac and cheese is made of. That's right, Mornay is simply béchamel sauce with cheese added. And what's a béchamel? Ummm…. (opens French dictionary, frantically looks through)… look, over there, it's Rebecca De Mornay, star of "Risky Business!"
