Crockpot Mac N' Cheese Recipe

1/2 Stick butter
2 Cups Sharp Cheddar, shredded (I use white cheddar)
1 Can Cheddar Cheese soup ( I use Campbell’s)
1/2 tsp. ground mustard
1/2 tsp. salt & pepper
1 Cup milk (I use skim)
1/2 Cup sour cream
3 eggs, beaten
2 Cups cooked elbow macaroni (measure out dry)

Directions:

  1. Cook macaroni according to package directions. Lessen cooking time by 1-2 minutes so pasta is not too soft. While pasta is cooking, prepare rest of recipe.
  2. In a saucepan, melt butter then add shredded cheddar. Stir until melted together. Add to crockpot. Stir in soup. Add sour cream. Stir well. Add mustard, salt & pepper (I found 1/2 tsp. was a little much, so I just add a few shakes), milk and eggs. Mix well.
  3. Add drained, cooked macaroni and stir well.
  4. Cook on low 3 hours. Last 30 minutes of cook time, add a little (1/2 Cup) of shredded cheddar to top. DO NOT STIR. Cover and cook rest of time.

Add a few drops of Tabasco sauce for a little kick before digging in, a tossed green salad and you will be good to go!
