Preheat oven to 350°F. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the macaroni according to package directions. Drain pasta well.

In a large microwave-safe bowl, combine the cream cheese, milk, and heavy cream. Heat 30 sec.–1 min., until cream cheese is melted. Add the mozzarella, Cheddar, Monterey Jack, Asiago, and sour cream. Stir until combined. Add the thyme, garlic powder, onion powder, chili powder, cayenne pepper, and nutmeg. Season with salt and pepper. Stir to combine.
