My Very Best Crock Pot Macaroni And Cheese

Total Time: 4 hrs 20 mins Preparation Time: 20 mins Cook Time: 4 hrs

Ingredients

• Servings: 12
• 16 ounces elbow macaroni
• 24 ounces extra-sharp cheddar cheese or 24 ounces sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
• 1/4-1/3 cup grated onion
• 12 ounces evaporated milk
• 4 ounces butter, 1 stick cut into chunks
• 1 3/4 cups milk
• 1/8 teaspoon black pepper
• salt

Recipe

• 1 cook the macaroni firm; very al dente and pour into crock pot.
• 2 add remaining ingredients and stir well.
• 3 cover and cook on high 4 hours stirring every 2 hours. i usually find that 4 hours is enough time but like to leave it a bit longer as i love the baked cheese around the edges.
• 4 salt to taste as the cheese contains salt. i use the higher amount of onion though if you are leery, use the 1/4 cup. actually i usually just grate 1/2 an onion.
• 5 i have corrected an error in this recipe. i had said 4-6 hours cooking time and i have no clue why! lol. i have always always only ever cooked this 4 hours!
