Crockpot Macaroni & Cheese


Crockpot Macaroni & Cheese

For this one I combined 2 different recipes.  It was a hit with my family!   Personally, I would prefer more creamy, so I may add more milk or cream cheese the next time.

CROCKPOT MACARONI & CHEESE
  • 16 oz. (4 cups) uncooked elbow macaroni
  • 2 1/2 c. whole milk
  • 12 oz. evaporated milk
  • 3 c. (12 oz.) shredded cheddar cheese
  • 8 oz. shredded Velveeta cheese
  • 8 oz. cream cheese, cut into blocks
  • 1/4 c. Parmesan cheese
Cook macaroni in boiling water for 5 minutes; drain.  Mix milks and cheddar, Velveeta, and cream cheeses in crockpot.  Stir in macaroni.  Top with Parmesan cheese.  Cover and cook on low for 2 to 3 hours (ours went 2 1/2 hours in my Rival).  Stir well before serving.  May want to add black pepper to taste.
Note:  I put this together in the morning before leaving for work and refrigerated.  My teen DD put the crock in the heating unit 2 hrs. before I got home.
