I will be the first to admit that when I first saw a recipe for
“Crock Pot Mac & Cheese” I though of a big pot of cheese flavored mush. And I will also admit my first attempt was just that.
Well move over mush, This is some seriously amazing Mac & Cheese!
What you will need:
1 (16 oz.) package of Macaroni
20 oz. of Sharp Cheddar..or you can make a mix of different types
1 (8oz.) pkg. Cream Cheese: cubed
1/2 Stick of Margarine: melted
2 Egg’s
2 C. Milk
Salt & Pepper to taste
First Boil Pasta until it is half done, about 7-8 minutes.
Drain pasta then pour into your lightly sprayed Crock Pot.
Next add the Shredded cheese & Cream Cheese to the pasta.
*I do NOT recommend using Pre-Shredded Cheese,
I did this once and it makes the Sauce grainy.
In a bowl combine eggs, milk salt and pepper. Beat well.
Then stir in melted Margarine. Beat together again.
Pour this mixture over the cheese & pasta. Stir until all is blended.
Cook on LOW heat for 2 hrs. Stirring occasionally.
You will be surprised at how good it taste’s.
