Preheat your oven to 190°C (375°F) and grease a large baking dish.
Cook the elbow macaroni in a large pot of salted boiling water until al dente, according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.
In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Once melted, whisk in the flour and cook for 1-2 minutes to form a roux.
Gradually pour in the milk and heavy cream, whisking constantly to avoid lumps. Cook over medium heat until the mixture thickens, about 5-7 minutes.
Stir in the cheddar, Gruyere, and Parmesan cheeses, mixing until completely melted and smooth. Add the salt, black pepper, Dijon mustard, and garlic powder. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.
Combine the cooked macaroni with the cheese sauce in a large bowl, ensuring the pasta is fully coated.
Transfer the macaroni and cheese mixture to the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly.
In a small bowl, mix the panko breadcrumbs with olive oil until evenly coated. Sprinkle the breadcrumb mixture over the macaroni and cheese.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the top is golden and crispy.
Garnish with chopped parsley if desired, and serve hot.
