Provided by Cassie Marshall

Categories     Side Dish

Time 2h5m

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 pound pasta
2 1/3 cups of milk
12 oz evaporated milk
12 oz shredded sharp cheddar
1 cup American cheese shredded
1 1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1/2 teaspoon dry ground mustard
1/3 teaspoon garlic powder
A sprinkle of cayenne pepper
1/4 cup of butter

Steps:

  • Spray your crockpot with non-stick spray.
  • Rinse your uncooked pasta in a strainer and drain out all the excess water.
  • Add your uncooked pasta to your crockpot along with your milk, cheese, mustard, garlic, salt, pepper, and cayenne. Stir everything well so all the ingredients mix together and make sure the macaroni is in the liquid as much as possible.
  • Add your cubed butter.
  • Cover your crock pot and turn on the low heat and cook for 1 hour. Remove the lid and stir all your ingredients before replacing the lid. Check the consistency because your dish may be done or require an additional 1-2 hours.
  • Check your dish every half hour if it is not done and remember to stir when checking your dish.
  • You will know your mac and cheese is done if the pasta is tender and the liquid is thick and creamy. Once you remove the lid, keep in mind the sauce will thicken even more as the mac and cheese sits.

CROCK POT MACARONI & CHEESE



Crock Pot Macaroni & Cheese image

I saw Paula Deen make this recipe on her Food Network program. I was looking for a really creamy macaroni and cheese recipe, and this is it! I changed it a bit by omitting the eggs (the original recipe calls for three) and boiling the macaroni for six minutes instead of seven, so it doesn't get mushy while cooking in the Crockpot. I also shortened the cooking time from three to two and a half hours. Perfection!
