Meanwhile, drain roasted peppers and remove as much char as you can. Add the peppers to a food processor and puree.
In a saucepan, melt butter. Add the flour and whisk to create a roux. Add the milk, pureed peppers, and Parmesan cheese. Continue to whisk until it begins to thicken. Season with salt and pepper as needed.
Drain pasta and return to pot. Add the red pepper sauce to the pot and stir to coat pasta. Serve with extra grated Parmesan cheese on top.
