1. Preheat the oven to 375F.

3. Whisk in the milk and 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper, then bring to a boil, whisking.
4. Boil until the milk is slightly thickened, about 8 minutes.
5. Remove from the heat and whisk in the cheeses until melted, then whisk in the broccoli.
6. Season the sauce with salt and pepper to taste.
7. Toss the pasta together with the sauce and transfer to a 3-quart baking dish.
