Notes
Use a tubular pasta so the ground beef can enter the spaces and fill the pasta well. Press the meat lightly to fill the tubes without breaking the pasta. A springform pan makes unmolding easier and creates a nicer presentation. If desired, cover the pan with aluminum foil for the first few minutes to help the cooking, then remove it at the end to brown. Serve hot to enjoy the melted cheese.
