Creamy Slow Cooker Mac Cheese Recipes

CREAMY SLOW-COOKER MAC & CHEESE

Steps:

• Spray 6 quart slow cooker with non stick spray. I don't use non stick spray, I used my butter wrapper to grease.
• Rinse the uncooked pasta well in cold water and drain.
• Add uncooked pasta to crockpot along with milks, cheeses, salt, pepper, mustard, garlic, and cayenne pepper.
• Stir to combine, making sure macaroni is submerged in liquid as much as possible.
• Dot with cubed butter.
• Cover and cook on low heat for 1 hour. Remove lid and stir. Depending on your slow cooker, your dish could be done at this point or require up to 1 to 2 more hours.
• If not done, continue cooking and checking periodically, every 30 minutes or so.

SLOW COOKER MAC 'N' CHEESE

Steps:

• Pour boiling water over the pasta and drain, then put everything in a slow cooker and stir well. Season, cover and cook on low for 1 hr. Stir again, put the lid back on and cook for another 30 mins until the pasta is cooked and the sauce has reduced enough to coat the macaroni.
• Leave the lid off and reduce for the last 10 mins if you need to, or add a splash more milk - this will depend on the size of your slow cooker and the brand. Serve with extra cheese.
